Bhiwandi, Dec 12: A major fire broke out on Friday afternoon in a dilapidated, locked building located near Lahoti Compound on Kalyan Road, triggering panic in the densely populated area. The blaze started on the ground floor of the abandoned structure, where large quantities of scrap material, including cloth rags and plastic waste, had reportedly been stored.

Scrap Material Fuels Rapid Spread of Flames

According to officials, the cloth waste caught fire suddenly and the flames quickly spread throughout the building due to the presence of highly combustible material.
