What began as a family reunion around a critically ill elderly man ended in unimaginable tragedy when a fire tore through a Delhi hotel, claiming the lives of eight members of the Aggarwal family. The relatives had gathered in the capital to spend precious time with 75-year-old Radheshyam, who is undergoing treatment for a lung infection at Max Hospital in Saket. The family has not yet informed him about the devastating loss, a TOI report stated.
Family members from Gurgaon, Bengaluru, Rajasthan and other places had travelled to Delhi after doctors reportedly indicated that Radheshyam's condition was serious. To remain close to him, they booked rooms in a nearby hotel. The decision, meant to keep the family together during a difficult period, ended in disaster.
