Protests erupt outside Kasba Police station as 3 arrested in alleged Kolkata college gang rape
In Mangalahat, Howrah, the festive spirit during Durga Puja was momentarily disrupted by a fire incident on Maha Ashtami. A fire broke out in the meter house in Mangalahat, causing concern and panic among traders and residents. The timely response of two fire engines and the efforts of CESC employees helped bring the fire under control, preventing it from escalating into a major catastrophe. It's worth noting that just two months earlier, the same area had witnessed a devastating fire that destroyed around six hundred shops.
This incident served as a stark reminder of the importance of fire safety measures during crowded festivals and highlighted the need for increased vigilance to prevent such occurrences in the future. It also showcased the efficiency of local fire brigade teams in swiftly responding to emergencies and safeguarding lives and property.
