It will also fix accountability on agencies or departments responsible and recommend preventive and corrective measures, the order stated.

In the aftermath of the fire incident, the Goa government has intensified its crackdown on the controversial Romeo Lane club chain, officials said on Monday.

Two other properties of the hospitality company in Goa have been sealed, they said.

The North Goa district administration has sealed a beach shack and another club, both part of the Romeo Lane chain, located at Vagator and Assagao, respectively, an official said.

Action has been initiated against both properties as they were involved in disputes, the official said.

The Goa government has issued an advisory for nightclubs, restaurants, bars, event venues and similar establishments, laying down several measures, including for fire safety and crowd control.

"Under provisions of the Disaster Management Act 2005, all such establishments are directed to ensure strict compliance with fire safety, electrical safety, emergency preparedness, and structural safety norms prescribed by the competent authorities," the advisory reads.

The establishments must maintain a valid fire NOC, comply with all conditions issued by the Fire Services Department, and adhere strictly to authorised occupancy limits, display maximum capacity prominently, and not allow overcrowding, it said.

The advisory has asked establishments to ensure functional smoke/heat detectors, alarms, sprinklers, hydrants, hose reels and serviced fire extinguishers.

"They have to use certified electrical wiring and protection devices, and remove temporary, overloaded, or unsafe electrical connections immediately. The establishments will have to keep all emergency exits and escape routes unobstructed with illuminated exit signage, evacuation maps, and emergency lighting," it said.

Non-compliance will attract strict enforcement action, including closure, suspension, or cancellation of licences and prosecution under the Disaster Management Act.

Police investigations so far have indicated multiple irregularities at the entertainment venue, including the absence of a No Objection Certificate from the fire department and the issuance of a licence without proper documentation.

Fire officials had said earlier that the club, located on the backwater of the Arpora river, had small exit doors connected only by a narrow bridge, which severely hampered the escape of people during the blaze.
