We often read news bits like this: “Major fires in recent months in city high-rises—Kurla, Dadar and Malad to name only three—have led to the state government moving a new fire safety bill that has stringent regulations and a legal framework to punish violators.” But in-between the lines the question remains why did it take ‘major fires in recent months’ to take this step? The lives and property lost in those fires could and should have been saved. The strategy of closing the stable doors after the horses have bolted has not changed one bit. The concept of precautionary fire safety strategy is observed more in the breach than in actual practice.

In private conversation, many top persons in the fire and safety industry concede that it is an expediency driven industry where human life is an acceptable ‘collateral damage’ where quick and easy money can be made and saved. I say this because scores and scores of precious innocent lives have been lost needlessly in fire accidents because victims did not know the first thing about first response and were ignorant of safe escape rules and utilities even though these remain mandatory for all relevant areas/premises as per law.
