Delhi hotel fire: MCD had inspected B&B just 1 day before tragedy; Here's what happened| Hauz Rani

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on June 11 terminated a health official who inspected the Hauz Rani bed-and-breakfast just a day before a devastating fire claimed 23 lives. According to the MCD, the official conducted a "superficial" inspection, "wilfully ignored" discrepancies and recommended the licence based on a "false and misleading" report. In a parallel action, the civic body also transferred the Deputy Health Officer (DHO) of the South Zone and attached him to the MCD headquarters on administrative grounds.
