BREAKING | Fire At Jaipur's Sms Hospital Kills 6 Icu Patients, 5 Critically Injured
A fire ripped through the Trauma ICU of Jaipur’s Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital late Sunday (Oct 5) night, killing six patients and leaving five others critical, officials said. The blaze broke out on the second floor of the Trauma Centre, where 24 patients were admitted — 11 in the Trauma ICU and 13 in a nearby semi-ICU. The fire spread quickly, releasing toxic smoke that engulfed the ward before staff and relatives could react. Trauma Centre in-charge Dr. Anurag Dhakad revealed that the blaze was triggered by a short circuit and said the team immediately began evacuations using trolleys, but six critical patients — two women and four men — could not be revived despite CPR.
