A big fire happened in a busy club in Goa early Sunday. Sadly, 25 people died and 50 were hurt. The fire was at the Birch nightclub. This sad event has started an important investigation. Several people were arrested. The fire shows problems with safety rules in clubs everywhere.

The fire started after midnight on Saturday. The club was full of people. They were watching a DJ play music. Witnesses said there was a loud bang. Then, the fire grew very fast. Thick smoke filled the building. At first, people thought a gas cylinder exploded. But the Chief Minister said fireworks inside the club were likely the cause. The inside of the club was badly damaged.

Among the dead were 21 staff members and 4 tourists. The tourists were a family from New Delhi. Most people died because they could not breathe. The fire was hard to fight because the club was across a small lake. Firefighters had trouble getting to the building. By Sunday, all the bodies were found.

After the fire, the Chief Minister ordered a full investigation. He promised to take action against anyone responsible. Police quickly arrested four people, including the club manager. The owner is also wanted. The Prime Minister sent his condolences. He also said families would get money to help them.

This event has started a big talk about rules in clubs and hotels. Similar fires have happened before. They are often because safety rules are ignored. Buildings are sometimes built without permission. Also, too many people are often in these places. An eyewitness said the scene was "horrific."

This sad event in Goa is a strong reminder about safety. When safety is not good, people get hurt. The investigation will find out exactly what happened. But it is clear that safety rules everywhere need to be much better. Everyone must be more careful.
