When the fire broke out, more than 70 people were inside; witnesses say some leaped out of windows to escape.

The bulk of the employees at the office were women. Family members were waiting outside a nearby hospital for news when the BBC arrived.

The fire is likely to have been ignited by a short circuit.

According to officials, two brothers who ran a CCTV manufacturing company that was headquartered in the building were arrested in connection with the event.

Pooja, a 19-year-old breadwinner for her family, is one of the women missing.
