Devastating Inferno: Massive Blaze Engulfs Tyre and Vehicle Garage in Guwahati’s Beharbari
A significant fire erupted at a tyre and body construction garage in Guwahati’s Beharbari area on Thursday evening, leading to widespread chaos and substantial damage. The blaze began around 7:30 PM and quickly intensified due to the large stock of tyres stored on-site, contributing to the rapid spread of the flames. As per a local resident, “About four to five vehicles were destroyed, and the stored tyres exacerbated the situation.”
The Fire and Emergency Services (F&ESS) promptly responded, dispatching around five rescue vans to the location in an effort to control the fire. Despite their immediate action, as of the latest reports, firefighters were still battling the inferno, with no injuries reported at this stage.
The authorities continue their on-ground operations to manage the situation, but further information on the exact cause of the fire and the overall extent of the damage is still pending. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the hazards posed by flammable materials stored in bulk.
In related news, the Guwahati Police have issued an advisory on Deepawali celebrations, emphasizing the use of green crackers while addressing safety and environmental concerns.
As investigations proceed and firefighting operations continue, the community awaits further updates and assurance of safety in the affected area.
