Meanwhile, earlier on Thursday, a fire broke out in the office of the Superintendent of Postal Goods Godown at Ghanta Ghar Road in Uttar Pradesh’s Aligarh on Thursday. To bring the blaze under control the four fire tenders reached the spot.
“We received the information of an old godown catching fire. Our 4 fire tenders reached the spot. The godown was a wooden-based structure, which made it a bit difficult to control the fire. Still, the work is under process. The reason behind such an incident is not clear as of now,” Fire Officer Virendra Singh Pal told ANI.
In a similar incident last month, a few apartments of Greater Noida’s Gaur City 14th Avenue caught fire. The video clip of the fire incident showed huge flames at the flats of the high-rise society. However, Bisrakh police station officials reached the spot and took control of the area. The fire initially started on the balcony of the first floor of an apartment and later spread to the other floors. No casualty or injury was reported.
