The three-member official committee headed by the principal secretary (political), Mr R.M. Gonela, on Friday, ruled out any sabotage in the fire accident in the ‘D’ block of the state Secretariat.
The committee, in its report to the government, has suggested implementation of fire safety measures in all the blocks in the Secretariat at the earliest. It also wanted rectification of electric wiring system as a short circuit caused the mishap.
“No important files or data stored in computer was destroyed and net connectivity has been fully restored to all the 400-odd computers in different sections of the two floors. A detailed report will be submitted by the CID investigating the case,” said Mr Gonela.
“The Secretariat will have an exclusive fire station on its premises. Two garages, office and storerooms will come up on a 1,000 square yards land adjacent to the ‘K’ block. It will be operational in a couple of months. A ‘Hazmat’ emergency vehicle, which is used to respond to hazardous material accidents, and two more fire tenders will be stationed in Secretariat,” the director-general of fire services, Ms Aruna Bahuguna, said
