Prem, 23, the lone survivor in the Bhoiguda fire accident, certainly earned his life.
At around 3.45 a.m., a little after the fire broke out, he tried escaping through the spiral staircase. But, when he failed, he rushed back to the room and jumped out of the window to safety.
“He bent the iron window grill with his hands to thrust his head out, and then his body, to make his way out. And, he was not too skinny,” a police officer told this reporter.
