Video: 3 Blasts Rock Mumbai's Sion After Massive Fire Breaks Out Behind Building In Pratiksha Nagar; 1-2 Injured

Panic enveloped the Pratiksha Nagar area in Mumbai's Sion district after three explosions occurred following a large fire that erupted behind the L7 building on Tuesday, resulting in one to two injuries. The incident unfolded a day after Govardhan Puja and a day before Bhai Dooj. A fire brigade personnel sustained burn injuries while attempting to extinguish the flames.

Preliminary reports suggest that the blasts were likely caused by exploding gas cylinders. The blaze, which originated between the building and a row of shops, eventually came under control. Neighbors rushed to assist the injured, who were subsequently taken to a hospital for treatment. The crowd that gathered outside the building dispersed to ensure safety.

Six fire brigade vehicles, along with police personnel, arrived at the scene to control the fire. Ambulances were dispatched to provide medical help to the injured.
