Tragic Fire Accident Claims Lives of Three Children in Chengalpattu, Tamil Nadu

Three children tragically lost their lives in a devastating fire accident suspected to be caused by a gas leak at their home in Chengalpattu, near Chennai in Tamil Nadu. The mother of the children, who suffered severe burn injuries, is currently undergoing treatment at the Kilpauk Government Medical College Hospital, as reported by PTI.

A police official informed PTI that the fire was likely sparked by a gas leak within the house. The family, originally from Bihar, had a stove positioned on the floor, and the absence of windows in the house may have exacerbated the situation.

According to The New Indian Express, neighbours sprang into action upon hearing the family’s cries for help. All four family members were swiftly transported to the hospital for medical attention.

The tragic incident unfolded when the mother, accompanied by her three children, returned home after visiting her husband’s workplace near the Chengalpattu railway station on Thursday. Upon switching on the lights, the gas ignited, resulting in a sudden outbreak of fire.

Neighbours React to the Crisis

“No sooner had she turned on the switch than the gas got ignited and a fire broke out. Neighbours rushed to their help hearing their screams and all the four were rushed to the Chengalpattu government hospital,” the police official recounted. The children, identified as Raziya Parveen (7), Saif Ali (5), and one-and-a-half-year-old Althaf, tragically succumbed to their injuries on Friday, according to The New Indian Express.

The mother, identified as Roji Koothon, 24, is currently receiving treatment. She worked as a homemaker, while her husband, Saddam, was employed as a tea vendor at the Chengalpattu railway station.

Legal Action Following the Tragedy

The Chengalpattu police have registered a case regarding the incident, as investigations into the cause of the fire continue. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of the victims during this difficult time.
