Area sealed off to prevent further hazards

Given the scale of the fire, which disrupted daily life and caused temporary closures of nearby businesses, the area surrounding the restaurant was sealed off. This measure helped prevent accidents and allowed firefighters to work more effectively. As of now, no casualties have been reported, but the smoke created significant visibility issues and led to temporary disruptions.

Fire extinguished, but concerns remain

The firefighting operation is ongoing, and authorities are working to ensure that no further risks persist in the area. Despite the fire being brought under control, the local community remains on edge due to the proximity of the incident to the Rajouri Garden Metro Station, a key transportation hub.
