A massive fire broke out at Sanghvi Organics Pvt Ltd in GIDC Panoli, Bharuch district, Gujarat, on Saturday, sending thick plumes of smoke and flames visible from a distance. The incident sparked panic among workers and nearby residents, while multiple fire tenders rushed to the site to control the blaze.
Sections of the warehouse reportedly collapsed, trapping workers under rubble, and the cause and extent of the damage remain unknown. This comes months after a deadly fire in Deesa, Banaskantha district, that killed at least 21 people at an illegal firecracker factory. Officials confirmed that the unit was operating without a valid license, raising questions about safety compliance in industrial zones.
Authorities continue firefighting operations and investigations, as the community grapples with fear and uncertainty following this industrial disaster.
