Tragedy at the LDA plaza

Author:

Sir: The fire that engulfed two stories of the Lahore Developmental Authority (LDA) plaza has got to be one of the worst fires in the city in a long time. Some 28 people have died with many jumping out of windows to escape the searing flames. These hard working people have faced the worst tragedy anyone can ever imagine. How does one get over such an incident? This fire must be investigated and the real cause must be uncovered. Some are saying that a horrid, murderous conspiracy was the culprit and so I urge the relevant authorities to find out the real reason behind the fire.
