Massive Fire At Banquet Hall In Noida

Electrician died in the accident…

 

On Wednesday, 30 October 2024, a massive fire broke out at Lotus Grandeur Banquet Hall in Noida Sector-74. An electrician died.  

Fifteen fire tenders are on the spot to extinguish fire.

The fire broke out on Tuesday night, an official said.

Fire tenders were rushed to the location and the situation was controlled.

The banquet hall was under renovation.

“At around 3:30 AM, we got information that a fire had broken out at Lotus Grandeur banquet hall in Noida Sector 74.

15 fire tenders reached the location within 15 minutes after getting the information,” Noida DCP Ram Badan Singh said.

Since the banquet hall is made up of wood, some parts are smoldering, said DCP Singh, adding, “Rescue operation is still going on. One electrician, Parminder, died in the fire.”

The electrician was sleeping on the first floor and could not get out during the fire, said Pradeep Kumar, Chief Fire Officer.

Though there is no clue of the exact cause, it could be because of a short circuit.

It is also being speculated that the fire increased because of the gas cylinders present in the kitchen.

 

The banquet hall is completely turned into ashes and nothing left.
