Minister Sujit Bose counters allegations of delay in the Khidirpur market fire response, affirming adequate resources and bravery of firefighters.

Minister Bose Counters Kolkata Fire Allegations

Minister Sujit Bose refutes claims of negligence in the Khidirpur fire response, emphasizing adequate resources and the heroic efforts of firefighters.

Minister Bose refuted claims of negligence in the Kolkata fire response, emphasizing firefighter bravery and adequate resources, amid opposition criticism.

West Bengal's Fire and Emergency Services Minister Sujit Bose on Tuesday addressed the assembly about the recent blaze at a market in Kolkata's Khidirpur, rejecting allegations of delay and negligence in responding to the incident by his department.
Firefighters risk their lives much like the armed forces when dealing with emergencies, he said.
The opposition had alleged that fire tenders arrived late at the spot, lacked adequate water, and that one of the fire engines broke down during the operation.
"In response to the emergency call received at 2.05 PM, three fire tenders were immediately dispatched, with more engines sent later," the minister said.
"Mayor Firhad Hakim reached the spot, and I personally arrived there. Senior officials were also present, and even the chief minister visited the site during the day," Bose said.
It is reported that around 400 traders were affected by the fire.
"Some have alleged there was no water or that the pumps had no fuel. I want to make it clear - there was sufficient water, and the pumps had fuel. The issue may have occurred during the initial suction process when silt entered the system. We need to examine why the pump did not function properly at that moment, but the claim of no water or fuel is incorrect," Bose said.
He appealed to the House not to undermine the efforts of fire personnel.
"Just like our soldiers at the border, our firemen work under extreme risk, putting their lives on the line. Do not belittle their courage and sacrifice," he added.

April 8, 2025: In a distressing incident, actor and Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Pawan Kalyan, revealed that his son, Mark Shankar Pawanovich, was injured in a recent school fire in Singapore. Kalyan informed the public that Mark is currently hospitalized and slowly recuperating. Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his support by personally contacting Pawan Kalyan, offering words of encouragement that provided strength during this challenging time. Additionally, the Indian High Commissioner in Singapore has been directed to offer necessary assistance. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu also reached out to express his concern. Pawan Kalyan expressed gratitude towards the numerous well-wishers, including politicians, actors, and others who prayed for his son&rsquo;s swift recovery, holding poojas at temples on Mark&rsquo;s behalf. &ldquo;Mark Shankar is gradually recovering due to these good-hearted wishes and blessings. I sincerely thank everyone,&rdquo; Kalyan stated. The fire broke out in a shophouse on River Valley Road in Singapore, where several individuals, including children, were caught in the blaze. Pawan Kalyan&rsquo;s eight-year-old son, Mark, sustained burns on his limbs and suffered from smoke inhalation. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) quickly responded to control the fire. At the time of the incident, Pawan Kalyan was in Andhra Pradesh's Alluri Sitarama Raju district on an official visit, engaging with local communities. He promptly canceled his remaining engagements in Visakhapatnam to fly to Singapore and be with his son. Mark, who attends school in Singapore, is currently receiving medical treatment at a local hospital.

"A total of 11 people have died. Five were brought dead to SMS hospital. Five succumbed during treatment. One death was reported from Jaipuria hospital," Dr Deepak Maheshwari, Principal, SMS Medical College, said.
Jaipur Police Commissioner Biju George Joseph, who was at the crash site, said an outlet nozzle of the LPG tanker was damaged in the collision, leading to a gas leak that caused the blaze.
The crash occurred around 5.30 am, when it was still dark, in front of a school, according to authorities.
"Vehicles behind the tanker were engulfed in flames. Other vehicles coming from the opposite directions also caught fire and the vehicles collided," Joseph said.
The gas leak spread the fire in a flash, leaving no scope for those in nearby vehicles to come out. People were seen rushing and taking off clothes engulfed in flames.
The injured were rushed to the SMS hospital in Jaipur in more than 25 ambulances.
Forty-three people were brought to the hospital, seven of whom are on ventilator support, Dr Maheshwawri said.
Officials at the spot indicated that the casualty count may go up.
The Rajasthan government announced an assistance of Rs 5 lakh to the next of kin of the deceased and Rs 1 lakh for the injured.
President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Rajasthan Governor Haribhau Bagade, Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma and his predecessor Ashok Gehlot expressed grief over the deaths.
In a post on X, Modi announced an ex gratia of Rs 2 lakh from the Prime Minister's National Relief Fund to the next of kin of the deceased and Rs 50,000 to the injured.
Modi also spoke to CM Sharma to enquire about the incident and assured him of all possible support.
Earlier in the day, people reported witnessing flames from nearly a kilometre away as thick black smoke filled the sky and ambulances and fire brigade vehicles rushed towards the crash zone. A school van driver on his way to pick students recounted with horror the sight of a man engulfed in flames on the road.
The crash initially affected a nearly 300-metre stretch of the highway, leading to a long queue of vehicles. The traffic thickened with time and by afternoon choked the arterial road, leading to diversions.
Authorities were clearing the highway of the burnt vehicles to resume vehicular movement.
Thirty-seven vehicles, including several tailers, trucks and containers, two buses, as many pickups and bikes, one auto rickshaws and seven cars, were damaged in fire.
In the wake of the incident, Sharma along with Khimsar, rushed to SMS hospital.
Sharma also visited the accident site and spoke to police.
"I visited the hospital as soon as I got the incident. This is a very unfortunate incident. Instructions have been given to ensure proper treatment and other arrangements," he told reporters at the crash site.
Khimsar told reporters at the hospital that all doctors, resident doctors, and nursing staff had been called in to manage the situation and another ward opened to accommodate patients.
A 'green corridor' was set up from the accident site to the SMS hospital, he added.
An official said a private sleeper bus headed for Jaipur from Udaipur was behind the gas tanker when the accident occurred and efforts were underway to find the details of the passengers onboard.
A fire department official said, "A few fire tenders from Mansarover were rushed to the spot based on primary information, but later more were sent from other stations as well."
A team from the regional transport office also reached the spot to investigate the incident and Forensic Science Laboratory teams collected evidence.
Locals complained of itching in the eyes and breathing problems due to the smoke. Some said a few birds were found dead nearby.
A pipe factory along the highway suffered damages in the incident.
Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Prem Chand Bairwa and Minister of State for Home Jawahwar Singh Bedham also reached the accident site, while state Congress chief Govind Singh Dotasra and several BJP and Congress MLAs visited the hospital.
The school van driver told PTI that the flames were visible from a kilometre away and there was panic and chaos on the highway.
"As I got closer to the spot, I saw people running in haste and shouting for help. I saw a man engulfed in flames. It was a frightening scene. Fire brigades and ambulances were there but it was difficult for them to reach the spot initially," he said.
Jaipur Police has issued the helpline numbers 91-66-347-551, 87-64-688-431 and 73-00-363-636 for people to get in touch for inquiries or relevant information.
Dotasra told reporters at the site, "Many of the injured are critical. Such incidents should not happen and for this, governments should make arrangements."
He said the government should form a high-level committee and take concrete action so that such incidents are not repeated.

 Fire engulfs two buildings in Spanish city of Valencia, killing 4 people

Four people were killed and 19 went missing after a massive fire broke out at a residential building in the eastern Spanish city of Valencia.

A fire engulfed two residential buildings in the eastern Spanish city of Valencia on Thursday, killing four people and leaving 19 others missing hours after the blaze started, authorities said.
The fire sent fleeing residents onto balconies where some were rescued by firefighters, officials said.
Firefighters rushed to the scene on the outskirts of the city centre as flames burst from windows of the 14-story residential building where the blaze apparently started. Residents could be seen waiting for rescue on balconies, and firefighters used a crane to lift two residents from one of the balconies.
Valencia's assistant emergency services director, Jorge Suarez told reporters that four people were confirmed dead and that some six hours after the blaze started firefighters were trying to cool down the outside of the building before attempting to go inside.
Soldiers from Spain's Military Emergency Unit also were deployed and medics set up a large tent to tend to the injured on the scene.
The cause of the fire was not immediately known, but news reports said it might have spread rapidly owing to materials used in the building's structure.
The fire sent clouds of black smoke billowing skyward that could be seen from afar. Spain's weather agency, Aemet, reported winds of up to 60 kph at the time.
The fire began in the early evening and spread to an adjacent building, state news agency Efe reported.
Emergency service reports said that besides the four people killed, at least 13 were injured, most with fractures, burns and smoke inhalation. The 13 included six firefighters.
It was not immediately clear how many people were in the buildings or how many were rescued.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez posted a tweet on the X platform saying he was &ldquo;shocked by the terrible fire in a building in Valencia,&rdquo; adding that he had offered the city &ldquo;all the help that is necessary.&rdquo; &ldquo;I want to convey my solidarity to all the people affected and recognition to all the emergency personnel already deployed at the scene,&rdquo; Sanchez said.&nbsp;
