A sudden and fierce fire broke out in the forested area adjacent to a park in the Gadaipur locality, quickly escalating into a massive blaze. Thick smoke from the fire became visible from a great distance, causing panic and commotion throughout the area.
Fire Brigade Vehicles Arrive at the Scene
Local residents immediately alerted the fire brigade; subsequently, teams from the fire department arrived at the site and launched an operation to extinguish the fire. After a strenuous effort, the fire was brought under control. According to preliminary information, the cause of the fire is suspected to be either sparks emitted from high-voltage power lines or a burning *bidi* (traditional cigarette) or cigarette discarded by someone. Approximately one kanal of land—including several *Safeda* (Eucalyptus) trees—was reduced to ashes in this fire. Currently, there are no reports of any loss of life.
