According to Zone I Additional Commissioner of Police, Rashmi Agrawal Dubey, the blaze started around 1:30 PM at the two-storey factory building. Prompt action was taken, with several fire tenders and emergency personnel immediately dispatched to the site to contain the flames.
The firefighting teams have been successful in partially controlling the situation, though efforts to completely extinguish the blaze are still underway.
Videos capturing thick plumes of smoke rising from the chemical plant have rapidly spread across social media platforms, highlighting the severity of the incident.
Authorities have not yet identified the exact cause of the fire, and an investigation is expected to follow once the flames are fully extinguished.
