The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) will inspect the building that caught fire at Kalbadevi early on Friday, after it was alleged that chemicals are stored in it illegally. One of the four owners of the building has denied this.
According to the Mumbai Fire Brigade report, Rangawala Building, known as Chain Bazar building near the Mumbadevi Temple, Kalbadevi caught fire around 1.38 am on Friday. “The fire started on the ground floor in a cardboard box shop. Then it spread to the other floors. The cause of the fire seems to be a short circuit. The exact cause will be clear after investigation,” said a Fire Brigade official. The level 3 fire was extinguished at around 8 am on Friday. No casualty was reported in the incident, however, one Parag Chakankar, 40, was injured.
