Hospital fire kills at least six patients in India’s Jaipur, say officials
- Short-circuit suspected as cause of deadly Jaipur fire.
- Blaze began in intensive care unit of Sawai Man Singh Hospital
- Forensic team to determine exact cause of the fire.
NEW DELHI: A hospital blaze caused by a suspected short-circuit killed at least six patients in a trauma centre at the largest state-run hospital in India’s northwestern city of Jaipur, and injured five, officials said on Monday.
The fire began in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Sawai Man Singh Hospital, “releasing toxic gases”, hospital official Anurag Dhakad told the ANI news agency, adding that a short-circuit was the suspected cause.
“Five patients are still critical,” he said, while 13 had been safely evacuated from the two wards of the hospital in the capital of Rajasthan, which draws patients from across the desert state.
Fire brigade teams arrived within 20 minutes after the fire began late on Sunday in the neurosurgery ICU, hospital superintendent Sushil Kumar Bhati told the agency.
Most of the hospital equipment was gutted in the roughly two hours it took to bring the fire under control, however, broadcaster NDTV said.
Jaipur Police chief Biju George Joseph said a forensic investigation would determine the exact cause.
The government of Rajasthan, whose capital is Jaipur, has set up a panel to investigate the cause, ANI said.
It will study the hospital’s firefighting arrangements and the management’s response, as well as steps to avoid similar incidents, the agency added.
Similar hospital fires in India have been blamed on short circuits in electronic equipment.
Ten newborns died from burns and suffocation after a fire in November at a neonatal intensive care unit in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh.
In May 2024, six newborns died in a fire at a baby care hospital in New Delhi, the capital.
Meghan Markle is sharing new stills from her latest interview.
The Duchess of Sussex, who sat with Harper’s Bazaar for their latest cover story, has now turned to her Instagram to share BTS from the photography.
This comes as Meghan spoke about setbacks as she works on her lifestyle brand ‘As Ever’.
“I can give myself the same grace as a founder,” she notes. “There’s no such thing as perfect. I, too, get to make mistakes… There’s also not a lot of fun in trying to be perfect. So why try to do that if you want to have fun?”
“My office is right by the kitchen, and I love that I can work from home. It’s a great luxury,” she added, before noting how her kids fill up a large part of her day.

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly appear to be entering a calmer, more grounded chapter in their relationship.
According to a new report by PEOPLE Magazine, the pair are “basically back together” after welcoming their daughter, Saga Blade, in April 2025.
“Their baby girl is their top priority, and she’s brought them closer than ever,” a source shared.
The insider further explained that the couple’s daily rhythm, emotional stability, and communication have all improved since embracing parenthood together, making this period markedly different from their turbulent past year.
“They’re in a much stronger place than they were even six months ago, and Megan says their baby has given her a sense of peace and healing.”
A previous report also highlighted that Fox was genuinely moved by how tender and attentive MGK has been with their daughter.
This reportedly strengthened her trust and comfort with him.
“Things are great now,” the source told People.
“He’s amazing with the baby, and she very much enjoys spending time with him.”
