Prominent religious scholar Mufti Taqi Usmani has said that the inability to control a fire in a city like Karachi is a regrettable question mark.
In a statement, Mufti Taqi Usmani said that it is essential to conduct an impartial investigation into why timely assistance did not reach the Gul Plaza incident. The fire outbreak at Gul Plaza is an extremely heartbreaking and shameful tragedy for the nation. He stated that in just a few hours, how many lives were lost helplessly, how many middle-class traders suffered losses worth billions, turning them destitute. It is the government’s duty to expedite and strengthen safety measures. Those who ultimately performed the service of saving human lives are commendable. Mufti Taqi Usmani said that may Allah Almighty grant high ranks to the martyrs and bestow better alternatives upon the afflicted.
