Fire broke out at the popular Raipur Bhajiya House at its Khokhra Outlet in Ahmedabad on Sunday evening.
There were no casualties reported. However, the fire destroyed approximately 5-6 adjoining temporary shop structures, according to Jayesh Khadia, Chief Fire Officer (CFO) of the Ahmedabad Fire and Emergency Services (AFES).
“The control room received a fire call between 6-6.30 pm Sunday from Raipur Bhajiya House. Though no loss of life, around 5-6 shops which were temporary structures were destroyed. Also, we were more concerned about the Adani Gas Pipeline in the vicinity due to which the fire spread so quickly,” he said.
The fire was put out in about 45 minutes by one mini firefighter and three water tankers. The fire department of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporations is investigating the cause of the fire, which is still unknown.
