A fire broke out in a commercial building in Kolkata on Sunday. According to an official, at least five fire tenders were pressed into service to douse the flames.
The incident took place at Kolkata’s Central Avenue on the third floor of the commercial building. There were no reports of any injury or fatality due to the blaze that erupted around 7:15 pm.
"Inflammable materials were stored inside the building as it was being used as a godown. The fire is under control at the moment," the official said.
Fire Minister Sujit Bose is at the spot to take stock of the situation, he added.
