Fire breaks out at former Haryana CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda’s official residence

Fire brokeout in the official residence of former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda in Sector 7 on Tuesday. According to the officials, the fire broke out inside the room of his son Deepender Singh Hooda, located on the first floor of the house. The fire was caused due to a short circuit in a split AC unit inside the room.
