Fire at Mivaan Steel Plant in Chhattisgarh Contained; No Casualties ReportedPreviousNext

A fire broke out early Tuesday at the captive power plant section of Mivaan Steel's manufacturing unit in Raipur district, Chhattisgarh. The blaze, caused by an oil leak near a turbine generator's control-line pipe igniting due to a nearby steam line, produced thick smoke visible from kilometers away. The fire department contained the fire within hours, and no casualties were reported. Police have initiated an investigation to determine the cause and assess property damage.
