Fire at Carlton Center, Bangalore claims 9 lives : Updated Video

This evening there was a major fire that broke out at the Carlton Center(popular for TGIF) near the Old HAL Airport Road, close to the Domlur Flyover.

Reports being flased on television suggest that 9 folks have lost their lives and 70+ are injured. The blame is on a electric short-circuit. Also, the poor fire management equipment present in the building.

This incident has led to 2 km+ traffic jams in most places around Domlur. My condolences to the family(s) of those who have lost their lives today.

Here's a video grab of the incident.
