NEW DELHI -- The death toll in Saturday's massive fire in India's western state of Gujarat rose to 24. Among the dead were at least nine children, confirmed a local fire department official.
Besides, an unspecified number of people were injured in the mishap that occurred at an entertainment park "TRP Game Zone" in Gujarat's Rajkot district on Saturday afternoon.
According to the fire department official, fire-fighting work was almost over. Now a search operation was being carried out to bring out dead bodies, if any.
