Fire Breaks Out at Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj

Bhubaneswar: A massive fire broke out today at the ongoing Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, causing significant damage as several tents were engulfed by flames. The fire erupted at Sector-22 of Prayagraj, and emergency fire brigade personnel quickly responded to the scene, managing to bring the flames under control. Despite their efforts, a number of tents were completely destroyed in the blaze.
Authorities confirmed that there were no casualties reported from the fire incident. The outbreak occurred just one day after a stampede at the religious gathering, which tragically claimed the lives of at least 30 people.
This is not the first fire incident at the Maha Kumbh Mela this year. A similar fire occurred on January 19 at Sector-19, where around a dozen tents were gutted by flames.
