AHMEDABAD: Gujarat HC on Thursday took serious recognition of the inertia of the Rajkot municipal authorities before the gruesome fire incident at TRP Game Zone, which killed 27 people, asking why murder charges ought not to be invoked against the civic commissioner and why he hasn’t been suspended for letting TRB Game Zone operate illegally, particularly when a similar fire had broken out there last year too.
While hearing a suo motu PIL on the 27 deaths in the fire, the bench of Justice Biren Vaishnav and Justice Devan Desai was apprised of replies filed by the Rajkot municipal commissioners, chief fire officer and home department.
The judge added that the authorities stayed inactive after issuing a demolition order in Nov 2023.
