The reason behind the fire at the three-storey factory in Shahdara is yet to be ascertained.

A massive blaze erupted at a three-storey factory in Delhi's Shahdara area on Tuesday. The factory is located in Lane-6 of the Raghubar Pura area. There are at least six fire tenders at the spot to douse the blaze, according to an ANI report.

As the blaze erupted, people rushed to take out materials from other buildings as a precautionary measure. The reason behind the fire is yet to be ascertained. 

About a week ago, a massive fire broke out at a warehouse in the same area. 

According to ANI, the fire erupted at a warehouse in Khera Khurd village in Delhi's Shahdara area. Four fire tenders arrived at the spot to control the blaze. No casualties or injuries were reported in the incident.

Fire in East Delhi Garment Factory

Earlier in the morning, a fire broke out at a garment factory in East Delhi's Gandhi Nagar area. The fire service was informed at 9.55 am and five fire tenders were pressed into service to douse the blaze in the two-storey factory, an official of the Delhi Fire Service (DFS) said, reported PTI. No casualties were reported.

Due to hanging wires and narrow lanes, fire tenders faced the daunting task of reaching the spot. "As soon as I spotted the fire, I immediately informed the authorities. Fire tenders were delayed due to the narrow lanes here. I would request the government to send smaller fire tenders which could easily enter into such lanes," a resident identified as Manoj Jain told PTI.
