2 years on, fire detection system at NIA headquarters defunct
The Delhi Fire Service (DFS) has refused to grant the fire safety certificate to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) headquarters, flagging serious lapses, including a non-functional "fire detection system", on all floors. The building, inaugurated in 2017, houses India's top counter-terror body but, according to DFS, has been operating without basic fire safeguards for nearly two years.
