Fire at factory in Delhi's Bawana, no casualty: Officials

A major fire broke out at a bangles factory in the Bawana Industrial Area here on Saturday morning, officials said.

A call was received around 9 am about the fire in the factory located at G Block of Bawana, a Delhi Fire Services (DFS) official said.

At least 20 fire tenders were pressed into service and it took about five hours to put out the blaze, he added.
