Mamata said: “This is a railway building. They have some responsibility. I don't want to politicise an accident, but it is unfortunate that no one from the railway department has come.” “I have also been told by my minister that the fire officials had asked for a map of the building for easier access but received no cooperation.” She later said a single railway official had turned up. As the night wore on, teary-eyed relatives of some of the missing began arriving. State fire minister Sujit Bose, Calcutta police commissioner Soumen Mitra, director-general of fire and emergency services Jawed Shamim, Calcutta mayor Firhad Hakim and other senior state government officials were at the spot.
