Two Dead, Over 100 Rescued After Fire in Noida Residential BuildingPreviousNext

A fire broke out on July 15 in a multi-storey residential building in Noida's Mamura village, reportedly triggered by a spark from an electric two-wheeler being charged on the ground floor. The blaze spread to nearby petrol-powered vehicles, causing thick smoke that trapped residents. Firefighters rescued around 50 families, evacuating over 100 people in total. Two individuals, a man and a woman, died from smoke inhalation. The building owner and leaseholder have been arrested, and an FIR registered. Rescue and relief operations were overseen by local authorities, including Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
