A fire broke out at a plate-and-bowl manufacturing factory in Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh, early Saturday morning, prompting an extensive firefighting response, officials said.
According to Fire Officer Mahesh Pratap Singh, the fire department initially dispatched two fire tenders to the location. However, upon arrival, officials discovered that the blaze had spread across a larger area of the factory premises, leading to the deployment of two additional fire tenders to contain the flames. Singh said the firefighting teams were working continuously to control the situation and expressed confidence that the blaze would be brought under control soon. "We received a report of fire at 7.15 AM today and we immediately deployed 2 fire tenders. Upon reaching the spot, we found that the extent of fire had spread largely and we called in 2 more fire tenders... It will soon be brought under control," Singh told ANI. No injuries have been reported so far, and fire officials are assessing the damage to the factory structure and stored materials.
