"On the evening of March 23, around 4:40 PM, we received information about a fire breaking out in a house in Janata Colony of Modipuram under the Pallavpuram police station area. Upon receiving the information, the fire service and police teams immediately reached the scene," said circle officer of Daurala - Shichita Singh.


Following a quick response from fire and police teams, it was determined that the fire was caused by a short circuit within the residence.
