Seven infants killed in Lahore hospital fire
LAHORE: At least seven infants were killed when the infant’s ward at the Services Hospital caught fire. More than a dozen children were severely burnt in the fire and several are in critical condition.

DCO Lahore while speaking to Geo News said the reason behind the fire was a short circuit; however he made this statement without a proper investigation into the incident.

Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has taken notice of the incident and ordered an immediate inquiry.
