A significant fire erupted in a three-storey building located in the Khora area of Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, but fortunately, no casualties have been reported, according to a fire official. The incident occurred at Ahilyabai Chowk, prompting four fire brigade vehicles to quickly arrive and begin extinguishing the flames, as stated by Rahul Pal, the Chief Fire Officer (CFO) of Ghaziabad.
Reports indicate that the ground floor was being used for making photo frames when the fire broke out. The intensity of the flames led to the immediate evacuation of residents from nearby houses to ensure their safety, Pal noted.
In a separate incident, a large fire was also reported at a factory in the Sahibabad area of Ghaziabad on Saturday evening. Thick clouds of black smoke were visible from the area, and several fire brigade teams were dispatched to manage the situation, with no injuries or casualties reported at that time.
Upon notification of the factory fire, seven fire engines were deployed to the site. Firefighters successfully rescued an individual trapped on the roof during their efforts. Additional fire engines were also called in from surrounding districts for assistance.
This factory, located in Site 2, Harsh Compound, is known for manufacturing home appliances, including coolers. The flames spread swiftly and impacted an adjacent factory as well. CFO Rahul Pal indicated that fire engines from Ghaziabad, Noida, and Hapur were involved in the firefighting operations, with seven to eight vehicles actively combating the fire. The fire department is striving to control the blaze from all directions, though they are facing significant difficulties in managing its spread.
