NEW DELHI, 13 March (H.S.) : A significant fire erupted in a factory warehouse situated

in Okhla Phase-1, Delhi, on Thursday afternoon. Reports indicate that this

incident occurred on March 13, 2025, at approximately 2:48 PM. Upon

notification of the blaze, 24 fire brigade vehicles were dispatched to the

scene. Firefighters are currently engaged in efforts to control and extinguish

the flames. The cause of the fire remains undetermined at this time.

The factory is located at C-112, in proximity to Balaji

Dharm Kanta, Okhla Phase-1. In response to the incident, personnel from the

fire brigade and the Delhi Police are collaborating to manage the situation.

Despite several hours of dedicated efforts, the fire remains only partially

contained. Firefighters are persistently working to extinguish the flames;

however, the intensity of the blaze has hindered their success thus far. The

severity of the fire has necessitated the continuous arrival of fire tenders to

the scene.

The authorities have reported that there is currently no

information regarding any casualties from this incident; however, an assessment

of the damage is underway. Firefighters are fully prepared and actively engaged

in managing the situation. Reports indicate that strong winds are causing the

fire to spread quickly, making it challenging for the firefighters to

extinguish the flames. The intensity of the fire at the factory is so severe

that it may also endanger adjacent facilities.
