On Tuesday, 17 people were killed when fire engulfed Arpit Palace hotel in Karol Bagh. 

Those who survived the tragedy said the switches in the hotel rooms were not functioning properly and when the fire broke out, they found it difficult to locate the stairs as there was not sufficient light.

There was a restaurant at the basement of the hotel, violating rules, a fire officer said.
