Lucknow coaching fire: see police action so far - buildingsealed, FIR filed after 15 deaths| UP

A day after a devastating fire tore through a three-storey commercial building in Lucknow's Aliganj area, authorities sealed the premises, registered an FIR and launched multiple investigations into the tragedy that claimed 15 lives. Most of the victims were students and young professionals associated with an animation training centre and gaming zone operating inside the building. Investigators are probing reports that the structure was built on a residential plot, lacked a mandatory fire NOC, and may have used a biometric locking system that delayed the escape of people trapped inside.
