In a shocking incident that unfolded on the night of September 17, a woman sustained 60% burns due to a barbecue fire at a homestay in Darjeeling. Despite the severity of her injuries, authorities have reportedly made no arrests in connection with this alarming event.

This raises critical questions about safety regulations at hospitality establishments and the government's responsibility in protecting citizens. What measures are in place to hold such businesses accountable for ensuring the safety of their guests?

As the victim fights for her life, the lack of immediate action from law enforcement only adds to the distressing narrative. Will the authorities step up to address this grave oversight, or will another case of negligence be swept under the rug? According to The Hindu, many are left wondering how such tragedies can continue to occur without consequence.
