A fire broke out at TRP Mall opposite Bhavya Park in Bopal at about 11pm on Saturday. The fire began on the fifth floor, which houses a gaming zone and food courts.
Due to the late hour, no one was present, and no casualties or injuries were reported. Officials said a short circuit near a gaming area is thought to be the ignition point. Firefighting teams responded promptly, with six arriving by 11.20pm. “Six fire tenders reached the spot around 11.20pm and four more arrived soon after,” said a senior official of the Ahmedabad Fire and Emergency Services. Efforts to contain the fire were complicated by the mall’s closed glass facade.
