Jaipur: Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma checked out the Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital following a substantial fire break out in among its Intensive Care Units (ICUs).

The event, credited to a brief circuit, has actually led to the regrettable loss of 6 lives, as verified by SMS Hospital Trauma Centre In-charge Anurag Dhakad.

Rajasthan Minister Jawahar Singh Bedham, speaking on the occurrence, stated, “The CM is here after the information was received that a fire has broken out in an ICU due to a short circuit. The incident is unfortunate. Some people have lost their lives. SMS administration will release the no. of casualties. Out of 24, most of them have been saved. Their complete treatment is our priority.”

Dr. Anurag Dhakad offered even more information: “The fire seems to have broken out due to a short circuit. Our patients were already in a very critical condition. The maximum patients were in a coma. So their survival reflexes are also poor. They need a constant support system. Due to the electrical burn, toxic gases were released there, and we had to shift them along with their support system. Their condition became more serious. We tried to shift them to the ICUs on the lower floor, but we could not save them. There are six casualties.”

More updates on the event are waited for from the medical facility administration.
