A fire broke out at a commercial building—Poonam Chambers—in Worli on Sunday morning, officials said. No injuries have been reported in the incident. Mumbai Fire Brigade (MFB) officials said that eight fire engines and six water jet vehicles were dispatched to the site. They said though the fire was not major, smoke stuck in the glass-facade building created a challenge, adding that it took them over four hours to extinguish the fire.
According to the civic disaster control report, the fire was reported at 11.39 am on Sunday on the second floor of the seven-storey commercial building, which is located opposite Atria Mall. The fire was extinguished by 3.54 pm. Chief Fire Officer Ravindra Ambulgekar told mid-day that the firefighters had to break glasses to discharge smoke from the building. He added that an investigation will be done into the cause of the fire as well as internal fire fighting systems inside the commercial building.
