“Teams of several fire personnel, civil defence and police personnel were deployed in the fire-fighting and evacuation operations. Most probably the incident was caused by an electric short-circuit,” he said.
These huts are covered with plastic covers, tarpaulin sheets, wood and bamboo. These materials were another reason for the fire to spread across the area very rapidly.┬аNoida Fire: Massive Blaze Erupts at Factory in Phase 2 Industrial Area; No Casualty Reported (See Pics).
