Probe Finds Negligence in Amravati Hospital Fire; Action Taken Against Staff

The investigation identified M/S AOV International LLP as culpable for providing faulty fire‑suppression equipment, leading to a directive to blacklist the firm. A separate forensic review of Shilar Company’s services revealed initial shortcomings, prompting the government to begin blacklisting procedures for that contractor as well. Administrative actions have also been issued against contract employees, and the Public Works Department’s responsible officials face disciplinary penalties. These steps aim to hold all parties accountable for the preventable tragedy.
