Massive fire at Rajkot's Aslantis building kills 3, over 30 feared trapped

A massive fire broke out at the Aslantis building on Rajkot’s 150 Feet Ring Road, killing at least three people and trapping over 30 inside. The fire erupted on the sixth floor of the multi-story residential complex, with initial reports suggesting a short circuit in a flat where furniture work was ongoing. Thick plumes of smoke covered the area as emergency services rushed to the scene.

Fire brigade personnel and ambulances arrived swiftly, initiating rescue operations. Around 50 people were rescued from the building, while two firefighters sustained serious injuries. Videos from the site showed flames engulfing parts of the structure as a large crowd gathered nearby. Rescue teams continued efforts to locate those still trapped inside.

Authorities have yet to determine the exact cause of the fire, though investigations are underway. Officials are assessing the extent of the damage and ensuring structural stability before further evacuation. No official statements have been released regarding potential casualties beyond the confirmed three deaths.

Firefighters and emergency response teams remain on-site as efforts continue to bring the situation under control. Residents of nearby buildings were evacuated as a precautionary measure. Updates on the rescue operations and further casualties are awaited.
