A level-four fire broke out at One Avighna Park society at Currey Road in Mumbai on October 22.
A massive Level-4 fire broke out at a highrise 60 storey Avighna Park building on Curry Road located in Mumbai's Lalbaug area. Fourteen fire engines immediately rushed to the incident spot. The massive fire is said to have claimed the life of one person in the incident; subsequently, a search and rescue operation is being currently also being carried out at the accident site.
As a result, Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekar and other officials reached the spot to take account of the incident.

"The Fire and Rescue department reached the spot as soon as they received the news about the incident. Many people have been rescued, and the rescue operation is still on. One man jumped off the building in panic. We can't say that the fire fighting team failed in this. Please don't spread rumours," Pednekar told NDTV.
However, so far the cause of the fire is yet to be found.
A man stuck inside the building held the balcony's ledger on the 19th floor in a desperate attempt to be saved. Seconds later, he lost his grip and fell off the building. A Senior KEM official stated that the man was identified as Arun Tiwari. The 30-year-old was brought to the hospital at around 12:45 PM but he has been declared brought dead.
