Sanjay Kumar, a 35-year-old nurse, was tragically burnt alive in a fire that engulfed his home in the Maruti Kunj area of Gurugram late Thursday night. The fire is suspected to have been caused by a short circuit in an air conditioner located above his bed, leading to rapid spread of flames. Neighbors raised the alarm after noticing smoke, and while they attempted to extinguish the fire using water from a borewell, their efforts were in vain as the flames had already taken hold by the time firefighters arrived. Sanjay was home alone at the time of the incident, as his wife and child were staying with relatives. Authorities have initiated an investigation into the cause of the fire, and his body has been sent for autopsy. This incident has raised concerns about fire safety in residential areas, as it follows previous fire tragedies in the region.
