Hyderabad: A fire broke out in the store room of a textile showroom located in a multi storey building at Ghansi Bazaar near Madina Market in the early evening hours, March 7.
The fire broke out on the fourth floor of a five-story building in the early evening hours, causing panic. Fortunately, it was contained without causing any casualties as firefighters were rushed to the spot.
Fire officials stated that limited accessibility amid thick smoke forced firefighters to seek alternatives. The operation was conducted from the lower floors and a neighboring building to fully contain the flames.
