Fire breaks out in under-construction building in Nerul

A fire broke out in an under-construction site in Nerul near DY Patil Hospital on Wednesday. No casualties were reported as the building was empty. “The fire was at an empty under-construction site and no worker was present inside when the fire broke out. The thermocol flooring caught fire which led to clouds of smoke making it look like it was a major fire. The fire was brought under control within 15 to 20 minutes,” said Arun Bhoir, fire officer at Nerul fire brigade.
