Ludhiana :- A devastating fire engulfed a flyover near the Khanna area in Ludhiana, Punjab, on Wednesday, reportedly triggered by an oil tanker colliding with a divider and overturning. The ensuing chaos brought traffic to a grinding halt at the flyover and surrounding areas, as thick, black plumes of smoke billowed into the sky.
Swift response teams, including four to five fire tenders, along with civil and police administration, rushed to the scene immediately after the incident was reported. Their collective efforts are currently focused on extinguishing the flames, with no reported casualties or injuries thus far.
The precise cause of the mishap remains unknown at this time.
“We received information at 12:30 pm that an oil tanker caught fire after colliding with the divider on a flyover. Four to five fire tenders, along with civil and police administration, immediately reached the spot. The situation is under control, and traffic has been diverted,” stated SSP Khanna, Amneet Kondal.
This news is from five days ago, but it is worth noting that incidents of fire breaking out in various states of our country are increasing day by day.
