  "summary": "The Bhopal Municipal Corporation (BMC) launched a major anti-encroachment drive two days after a fire at New Market, clearing footpaths and market lanes and confiscating four truckloads of goods. The operation was triggered by a massive fire on October 8 that engulfed five nearby shops and more than 12 street-vendor stalls, causing significant losses. The drive aimed to improve emergency access and inspected fire-fighting equipment at various shops, imposing fines totaling Rs 13,000 for defaulting businesses.",
