Jaipur, Oct 5 : Two children, two-year-old Vanshika and a 45-day old infant, died in a fire that suddenly erupted when a domestic LPG cylinder caught fire inside a house in Prem Nagar, Jaipur on Tuesday night.
The father of the kids Nirdesh Kumar, who works as a technician in a petrol pump, his wife Kiran and six-year-old son Vivek suffered burns. They have been admitted to Sawai Man Singh Hospital here.
