6 die in Mumbai highrise fire; grandkids carry 86-year-old out

Barely two months after a fire on the 19th floor of a highrise killed one person in Lower Parel, six persons were killed and 24 injured in a blaze that broke out also on the 19th floor of a tower in Tardeo on Saturday morning. The fire started around 6.45am at the 20-storeyed Sachinam Heights, situated opposite Bhatia Hospital in Tardeo, fire brigade officials said. Many of the building’s residents were still asleep when the blaze began. A short circuit was the likely cause of the fire.
