A major fire broke out at a private firm located in Sector 2 of Noida, with thick smoke and flames seen billowing from a building, on Friday. Fire tenders have reached the location and firefighting operations are currently underway.
The extent of the damage and any potential casualties have not yet been confirmed. More details are awaited regarding the cause of the fire and any potential casualties.
In another incident, a fire broke out at a factory in Delhi's Bawana area, prompting the deployment of 22 fire engines to the site, on Friday. Firefighters have managed to bring the blaze under control, though efforts are still underway to fully extinguish it. No injuries have been reported so far.
Earlier this week, four people lost their lives in a devastating fire that engulfed a four-storey building in Rohini’s Rithala area. The building, which housed multiple manufacturing units, was completely consumed by flames on Tuesday evening, prompting a large-scale firefighting operation.
Firefighting efforts involved around 100 personnel and continued for nearly 15 hours, finally concluding around 10 am on Wednesday.
According to a PTI report, Delhi Fire Services said that the blaze may have been triggered by a worker’s alleged self-immolation attempt. However, Delhi Police stated that no such act has come to their notice so far and that they are awaiting a detailed report from the fire department to determine the exact cause.
