The estimated losses from the fire are in the range of several lakh rupees, though the exact amount remains under investigation. Upon receiving the alert from the Nagpur Municipal Corporation’s control room, the Sugat Nagar fire station was notified. A team led by officer-in-charge Sunil Dokre arrived at the scene and successfully contained the fire before it could spread further. The fire department’s prompt response prevented additional damage to the surrounding area. Following the incident, Kapil Nagar police have registered a case and are conducting further investigations to determine the cause of the fire. Authorities are yet to confirm whether the blaze originated from an electrical fault, a fuel leak, or another potential source. The investigation will also focus on whether any negligence or malpractice contributed to the incident.
