On the other hand, Pakistan has witnessed a series of devastating factory fires, casting a dark shadow over industrial sectors.

The fires have not only posed immediate threats to the lives of workers but also underscored the urgent need for comprehensive fire safety measures and stringent regulations in industrial settings.

Authorities are working diligently to contain the blazes, investigate the root causes, and enforce stricter safety protocols to prevent such tragedies in the future.
