Two Fire Incidents in Mumbai's Andheri West Injure Eight, Cause No Further HarmPreviousNext

Two fire incidents occurred in Mumbai's Andheri West on June 11, 2026. A morning fire at the 11-storey Manisha Building, caused by a short circuit in an AC unit on the 6th floor, injured eight residents who were treated at Arogya Hospital and are in stable condition. A second fire in the evening at the seven-storey Nalanda Building near Versova Metro Station was extinguished without injuries. Authorities noted increased fire calls due to AC overload amid extreme heat.
