A Devastating Fire

Amritsar: 9 October, 2017. Fire accidents are the worst

disasters. A major fire broke out during Diwali Mela celebrations in Aurangabad

district on Sunday. The cause of the fire was a temporary firecrackers market

set up on the occasion. The conflagration gutted 175 stalls and 70 vehicles.

Property worth 15 million rupees was charred to ashes.  It was a beautiful

morning. People were just getting out of their homes for the festival shopping

and festival fun. Hundreds of people had just started visiting the stalls to

buy crackers when all of a sudden a rocket fell on the heap of crackers at a

stall. Within seconds the place was converted into a blazing inferno. A

devastating fire engulfed the whole area. The people ran out of the market and

saved their lives. It is no less than a miracle that not a single human

causality occurred. More than 10 fire brigade tankers succeeded in dousing the

fire in four hours. Poisonous smoke billowed from the market and enveloped the

sky.  Local people rushed to the site for rescue operations. Police

Commissioner and other senior officers visited the spot and took stock of the

situation. An official inquiry has been ordered by the Mayor of the city.
