Following a deadly fire that claimed 27 lives in a Rajkot recreation center, the Gujarat government has transferred the city's police commissioner and various other officials. New appointments have been made in key positions, reflecting the government's response amid harsh criticism from the Gujarat High Court over the incident.
The TRP Game Zone in Rajkot never applied for the required fire No Objection Certificate (NOC), according to city fire officials. This counters claims made by the city police. After the fire incident that killed 27 people, several officials were transferred. The police had issued licenses without consulting the fire department.
