A huge fire broke out at the Pebberu town market yard and warehouse in Hyderabad, causing panic among the locals. Despite efforts by fire tenders, the flames have been raging for five hours and are out of control.
This fire incident is said to be the biggest accident in Telangana so far. It is estimated that it may take another 10 to 12 hours for the flames to be completely extinguished.
Various authorities including municipal, revenue, local police, fire brigade, and water tank owners, as well as leaders from all political parties, are working tirelessly to bring the fire under control. The government will investigate whether the fire was accidental or deliberate.
The warehouses, which were worth crores of rupees and contained people’s property, have been reduced to ashes. More information about the incident is expected to emerge soon.
