Over a 24-hour period, five major fire incidents occurred in various locations across New Delhi, with no casualties reported. The most severe incident took place in Shakur Basti, where a fire destroyed approximately 150 shanties, leaving around 400 people homeless. Residents believe the fire may have originated from an electric pole spark. Firefighters managed to control the blaze by 1 am on Saturday, but many lost valuables, including cash and jewelry. In Laxmi Nagar, a transformer fire led to explosions that partially engulfed four multi-storey buildings, trapping 14 people on the third floor. Firefighters faced delays due to parked vehicles obstructing access to the site. Other incidents occurred in Rohini Sector 5, a tent godown in Loni, and a forest area in Majlis Park, but no injuries were reported in any of the fires.
