The fire broke out at the backyard boundary wall of PPSC office in a heap of dry leaves. The fire spread out quickly due to combustible nature of dry leaves. Windy weather further aggravated the situation and the fire brigade officials face a tough time to control the fire in leaves.

“Cause of the fire, is yet to ascertain, but prima facie, the fire broke out due to someone may tried to burn the dried leaves” said a Fire Brigade official, on the condition of anonymity.
