According to Jagtap AD, asstistant fire-officer, the fire was massive because there were chemicals kept in the factory and it took 22u00a0 officers to get everything under control. The electricity in that area was disconnected for couple of hours for safety measures.
An onlooker said work was on in the factory till late afternoon. "Workers were inside the factory around 4pm. Suddenly, we saw the factory on fire and called for help. There were four private water tankers inside the building too."
PSI Jadhav from Kalewadi -Sanghvi refused to comment on the cause. "We are hearing different theories from people present here. But there are no casualties."
