In a twist following the tragic Indore house fire, survivor Saurabh Pugalia has come forward to challenge official police explanations for the fatal incident, which killed eight family members.
Pugalia claims that the fire, contrary to police reports, was not caused by a charging electric vehicle. He insists that the car was not connected to the charging point on the day of the fire, nullifying a potential cause.
Pugalia further alleges that a blast at an electric pole outside the house sparked the blaze. Criticizing rescue efforts, he stresses that timely intervention could have saved lives. An investigation has been initiated by Chief Minister Mohan Yadav.
