Noida, located in Uttar Pradesh, India, is experiencing rapid vertical expansion with over 1,500 high-rises exceeding eight floors. However, the city's firefighting capabilities are inadequate, as the tallest hydraulic platform can only reach 42 meters (approximately 14 floors). This limitation was highlighted when a fire platform was dispatched to Ghaziabad to assist with a blaze, revealing a critical gap in emergency preparedness. The Gautam Budh Nagar Fire Department currently has just four hydraulic platforms and is significantly understaffed, with only 85 personnel compared to a sanctioned strength of 350. Fire officials acknowledge that the existing equipment is insufficient for the growing number of high-rises, which often exceed 20 or 30 floors. To address this issue, the department has proposed acquiring more advanced hydraulic platforms with reach capacities of 72, 92, and even 104 meters. This upgrade is crucial as fires in high-rises can spread rapidly and evacuation becomes increasingly difficult. The urgency of this situation is underscored by the presence of towering buildings like the Supernova tower, which stands nearly 300 meters tall with close to 80 floors. The fire department is also exploring new firefighting technologies, such as the Compressed Air Foam (CAF) system, to improve response efficiency in high-rise emergencies.
