A massive fire erupted at a children's eye hospital in Delhi on Wednesday. Following the incident, twelve fire tenders arrived promptly at the scene, and efforts to extinguish the blaze are ongoing.

In a similar incident earlier in May, a major fire at a children's hospital in Delhi resulted in the deaths of at least seven newborns. Officials managed to safely evacuate twelve other newborns from the hospital. The hospital, owned by Dr. Naveen Khichi, was later found to be unregistered and had previously faced controversy over allegations of assaulting a newborn during treatment.
