A fire broke out in a Vardhaman garment shop on the fifth floor of an eight-storey commercial building on Daftari Road in the Dindoshi area of Malad East on Thursday morning.

D K Ghosh, divisional fire officer, said, “The fire was extinguished by early evening and cooling operations are still on.” He added that the area around the building was engulfed in smoke. There were no injuries reported.


On Tuesday, another fire was reported in Mulund, at a six-storey corporate park where 50 people were rescued. They were moved to safety with the help of escape ladders. The fire affected wiring, electrical installations, split AC units and wooden furniture.
