Property worth lakhs gutted in fire
Updated: 2016-05-05-06:26
Property worth Rs 20 lakh was gutted when a major fire broke out in a store house-cum-wood godown at Jasra Bazar in the early hours of Wednesday.
The fire was triggered by sparking of electric wires. As many as six fire tenders were deployed to douse the flames.
The owner of the godown cum store house, Awadh Lal Kesarwani, said everything inside the godown was reduced to ashes. Shopkeepers alleged that there were inadequate firefighting arrangements in the area. They said fire tenders find it tough to negotiate rural terrain and so take longer in reaching the site than they would, elsewhere. tnn
