The inspections, directed by municipal commissioner Naval Kishore Ram, cover various establishments including PG accommodations, coaching centers, and scrap godowns. Facilities have been given seven days to comply with fire-safety norms, with some facing closure for serious breaches. The drive aims to enhance safety for vulnerable groups and continues citywide under close supervision.
