According to fire officials, they received a call at around 9:40 am informing them about smoke coming out from the first floor of the building.
A massive fire broke out at the office of the power ministry in CGO complex in Pragati Vihar area of South Delhi on Saturday morning. The fire broke out before the office timing and no one was injured in the incident, an official said.
According to fire officials, they received a call at around 9:40 am informing them about smoke coming out from the first floor of the building.
"An employee from the complex area made a call and around 23 fire tenders were rushed to the spot. The fire had broken out on the first floor of block number 14 in CGO complex belonging to power ministry," said Atul Garg, Chief Fire Officer.
The fire was brought under control by 10.30 am.
"We had to vacate some of the adjacent rooms as safety measures. Prime facie, a short circuit appears to be the reason behind the blaze and it started from the mess area of the office," said a senior fire official.
In a separate incident, a boy playing in a DDA park at Mandawali got serious burn injuries after a fire in the nearby electric transformer. He was taken to Lal Bahadur Shastri Hospital. He has received 40 per cent burn injuries.
Similarly on Friday morning, a massive fire had broken out in a timber godown and spread into nearby slum clusters Indira Camp and Jawahar Camp, leaving more than 100 people homeless in Kirti Nagar area of West Delhi. The fire was so intense that according to fire officers, 30 fire tenders had to be rushed to the spot and it took over three hours for the fire fighters to bring the situation under control. No causality was reported.
