Massive Fire Engulfs Dalda Warehouse in Patna, Investigation UnderwayPreviousNext

A massive fire broke out late Sunday night at a Dalda warehouse in Patna's Didarganj area, prompting a large-scale firefighting operation involving dozens of fire tenders. The blaze spread rapidly across the warehouse, causing thick smoke visible from afar. Authorities fear significant financial losses, with preliminary estimates suggesting crores worth of goods destroyed. The cause remains unknown, and an investigation is underway. The warehouse's location away from dense residential areas helped prevent immediate risk to nearby residents.
