Goa nightclub fire: Safety lapses lead to tragic loss

India Dec 07, 2025

A fire broke out at a North Goa nightclub just after midnight on Saturday night, claiming 25 lives—including four tourists and 14 staff.
Shockingly, the club was running without the required No Objection Certificate (NOC) and didn't meet basic fire safety rules, according to officials.
Prime Minister Modi shared his condolences and announced financial help for those affected.

What's happening next?

Goa's Chief Minister Pramod Sawant called it a "very painful day" and has ordered an investigation into how this happened.
He promised strict action against anyone found responsible.
