A fire broke out at a private hospital in Greater Noida on Thursday. Videos circulating online showed flames emanating from the emergency department. The cause of the fire was not known immediately. Efforts are being made to extinguish the fire.
Gautam Buddh Nagar CFO Pradeep Kumar said that information regarding the fire came at around 11 am, after which a fire unit was rushed immediately, as reported in NDTV.
Even though the fire brigade arrived and doused the fire, a motorcycle parked under the transformer got completely burnt.
Meanwhile, a private chartered bus hired to transport people for a marriage function caught fire in southeast Delhi’s Jaitpur area. No one was injured in the incident, as the bus had no passengers at the time, and the driver immediately exited the vehicle after noticing smoke from the engine.
“A call about the fire was received at 8:10 am from School Chowk, and two fire tenders were dispatched to the location,” an official from the Delhi Fire Service said.
The fire was doused within an hour, added the official. Police suspected a short circuit to have caused the fire.
