#DelhiFire #RithalaFire #DelhiNews #BreakingNews #FireIncident A major fire broke out in the slum clusters near Rithala in Delhi early Thursday morning, creating panic among residents in the area. The incident took place near Rithala Metro Station, where several makeshift houses were engulfed in flames. As soon as the fire started, people living in the slums rushed out of their homes to save their lives, leading to chaos in the locality. According to the Delhi Fire Department, information about the fire was received at around 4:15 AM. Immediately after receiving the alert, several fire tenders were rushed to the spot to control the blaze. In total, around 15 fire engines were deployed to the location to bring the situation under control. The fire spread rapidly due to the closely packed huts and the highly flammable materials used in the construction of the slum dwellings, such as wood, plastic sheets, and tin. Within a short time, the flames intensified and spread to multiple huts, making the firefighting operation more challenging for the emergency teams. After several hours of continuous efforts, firefighters managed to bring the fire largely under control. However, by then significant damage had already been caused. According to initial reports, nearly 60 to 70 slum huts were completely gutted in the fire. The incident has also resulted in a tragic loss of life. During the rescue and search operation, the body of a young girl was recovered from the debris, confirming one fatality in the incident. The discovery of the body has left the local community in deep shock and grief. Meanwhile, it has also been reported that a 17-year-old minor girl is missing following the fire incident. Her family members have been searching for her, while police teams and rescue personnel are also conducting search operations in the affected area to locate her. Authorities are trying to confirm whether the missing girl is linked to the fatality reported in the fire. Local police also reached the spot soon after the incident and secured the area. Officials stated that the exact cause of the fire has not yet been determined. Preliminary suspicion suggests that the blaze could have been triggered by a short circuit or another accidental cause, but the exact reason will only be known after a detailed investigation. Fire department officials said that fires in slum areas often spread very quickly due to the narrow lanes and the presence of combustible materials in the huts. This makes it difficult for firefighting teams to access the core of the blaze and contain it immediately. At present, firefighters have almost completely extinguished the flames and cooling operations are underway to prevent the fire from reigniting. Police have launched an investigation into the incident and are working to determine the exact cause of the fire. The incident has left many families homeless as their huts and belongings were completely destroyed. Residents are now hoping for relief and assistance from the authorities as they try to recover from the devastating fire. Emergency teams and officials remain present at the site to monitor the situation and continue rescue efforts.
