Watch: Major Fire At Nampally Furniture Shop Traps Six
- Major fire breaks out at Bachcha Crystal Furniture Store
- Rescue efforts intensify as six people trapped in Nampally fire
A major fire broke out at the Bachcha Crystal Furniture Store in Nampally, Hyderabad, causing panic in the busy area and raising serious safety concerns. Six people, including two children, were reported to be trapped inside the four storey building as thick smoke spread rapidly. The major fire prompted an immediate response from fire and rescue teams, who rushed to the spot to control the situation and save those inside.
According to the input, rescue teams reached the location with 10 fire engines and began efforts to douse the flames. However, heavy smoke from the ground floor made escape difficult. Those inside could not come out and remained trapped on the upper floors. Meanwhile, the condition of the trapped people became alarming as breathing grew difficult due to smoke. Therefore, rescue workers stepped up efforts to reach the top floors and bring them out safely.
Firefighters used JCBs and heavy cranes to assist in the rescue operation. The narrow lanes and crowded surroundings of Nampally added to the challenge. In such areas, fire engines often struggle to reach accident sites quickly. As a result, officials faced difficulties in moving equipment and personnel during the rescue. However, teams continued their work despite the obstacles.
Preliminary information suggested that a short circuit may have caused the major fire. Officials had not confirmed the exact cause, but they suspected an electrical fault triggered the blaze. Meanwhile, the presence of furniture stock inside the shop likely added to the intensity of the fire, producing more smoke and heat. This made rescue operations more complex and risky.
Officials also expressed concern over fire safety compliance in commercial complexes. In the wake of similar incidents in the past, they pointed to repeated violations of fire safety rules. The severity of such accidents increases when godowns or shops operate between residential houses. Therefore, authorities stressed the need for strict checks and adherence to safety norms to prevent such incidents.
The major fire at the Nampally furniture shop once again highlighted the risks in congested commercial areas. Rescue operations were still underway as teams worked to safely evacuate those trapped inside. Further details were awaited as the situation developed, and officials continued to monitor the incident closely.
