Prime Minister Narendra Modi offered his condolences this morning after a factory fire in Delhi killed more than 40 people and left several others injured. The Prime Minister, who called the fire "extremely horrific", said his thoughts were with the families of the victims and that the authorities had been instructed to provide all possible assistance. Home Minister Amit Shah, who tweeted minutes earlier about the "tragic loss of precious lives", said he would pray for the early recovery of the injured.
