The fire is reportedly under control though several people remain stranded in the floors above where the flames broke out. Eyewitness video from the scene shows the extent of the blaze which tore through the skyscraper.
“The fire has spread through the duct to the top floors. There is no space for the fire brigade officials to enter the place. The area is congested,” eyewitness Akhram Shaikh said to The Indian Express.
