Eight members of a Gurugram family were among the 21 people killed in the devastating fire at Delhi's Flourish Stay hotel in Malviya Nagar on Wednesday. Vivek Agarwal, a chartered accountant, had travelled to Delhi with his wife, two daughters and four relatives to visit his ailing father, who is undergoing treatment at a hospital in the capital. The family was having breakfast at the hotel when the fire broke out. All eight died in the tragedy, leaving Vivek's 80-year-old father as the only immediate survivor. Authorities said the fire spread rapidly through the five-storey building. Investigators are examining possible safety violations, including reports that the hotel was operating far more rooms than permitted under its licence. (PC: NDTV)
