Major fire breaks out in Noida Sector 125; 5 to 6 shops gutted

A massive fire erupted in a commercial market cluster in Noida's Sector 125, completely gutting at least five to six shops before fire authorities could bring the situation under control. A fire occurred in a commercial market zone in Noida Sector 126, causing destruction of at least six commercial shops. Several fire tenders were dispatched to the spot.

The Chief Fire Officer (CFO) of Noida, Pradeep Kumar, noted that fire tenders had to face additional dangers due to the presence of gas cylinders in the shops.

"Large number of LPG cylinders have been found in the burning premises," said CFO Pradeep Kumar. "We are tackling the threat now, while continuing with search and rescue operations to save people trapped inside."

Further investigation is underway in relation to the cause and total extent of the structural loss in the fire in Noida Sector 126.
