This is not the first fire incident in Noida this month. On June 3, a short circuit in the air conditioning system of a private company caused a fire in Sector 10. The fire started on the ground and second floors of KM Leasing Limited, a garment manufacturing company. During the firefighting operation, an LPG cylinder on the third floor exploded. No injuries were reported, and the fire was safely extinguished.
Officials have advised the public not to run their air conditioners continuously for long periods, especially during the extreme heat. Delhi-NCR region has been experiencing a severe heatwave for the past few weeks, with temperatures often exceeding 42 degrees Celsius.
