The West Bengal Fire and Emergency Services Department has issued notices to three major Durga Puja committees in south Kolkata—Chetla Agrani, Ballygunge Cultural, and another—over fire safety lapses. This follows the Chorbagan pandal stampede that killed 19 people. Officials emphasized the need for adequate lighting and ventilation inside pandals to prevent dark spots, improve visibility, and aid crowd management.
