Madhya Pradesh assembly has passed a new fire safety law, imposing a fine of up to 5 lakh rupees for using buildings without fire NOC. The law aims to strictly enforce fire safety rules.
The Madhya Pradesh government has taken a significant step towards enhancing fire safety in the state. The new law mandates that all buildings must obtain a fire NOC before they can be occupied or used. This move is expected to reduce the risk of fire accidents and ensure the safety of occupants. The law also provides for strict penalties for non-compliance, including a fine of up to 5 lakh rupees. The government hopes that this law will encourage building owners to take fire safety seriously and implement the necessary measures to prevent fires.
