Despite Kamala Mills fire that killed 14 persons last month, Municipal Commissioner Ajoy Mehta is firm on his decision to allow rooftop restaurants as long as the owners follow the prescribed safety norms. “The rooftop policy mandates that the roof remains open towards the sky. Fire at Kamala Mills restaurants was devastating because the owners had violated norms and had covered the eateries. The policy also stipulates that no flame is to be used at the rooftop restaurants. As long as the restaurant owners adhere to all norms, there will be no accidents like Kamala Mills.
