A fire broke out at a godown storing wooden items in Delhi’s Dallupura area on Sunday, prompting the Delhi Fire Service to deploy 16 fire tenders to the site. No burn injuries had been reported while firefighting operations were underway, according to a Delhi Fire Service officer.
The fire service received the call at 3.29 pm. Firefighters were dispatched to the godown in east Delhi, where wooden items were stored. The nature of the material increased the firefighting challenge, though the officer did not provide further details about the intensity or spread of the blaze.
The Delhi Fire Service was working to bring the fire under control when the report was published. The officer said that no one had received burn injuries so far. There was no immediate information on possible damage to the godown or surrounding properties.
The cause of the fire was not known at the time of reporting. Officials had not released details about how the blaze started, whether the premises had been evacuated, or whether any nearby buildings were affected.
The incident highlights the immediate role of fire-response capacity in densely built parts of the capital, particularly where storage premises contain combustible materials. However, the available information does not establish whether any safety or regulatory breach contributed to the fire.
Firefighting operations were continuing, and further details about the cause of the blaze were awaited from the authorities.
