A major fire broke out in a seven-storey market in Gujarat’s Surat city engulfing several shops in the complex.
While there was no report of any casualty so far, the fire brigade declared a ‘brigade call’ and deployed over 60 fire tenders, water tankers and hydraulic ladders from across the city to douse the blaze. The fire brigade got a call around 4 am about the blaze in Raghuvir Celeum Center, a large textile market located in Saroli area.
Several shops were gutted in the blaze which spread rapidly because of the dress material and other cloth items stored there.
