The total loss is estimated at around Rs. 1 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident occurred at around 1.30 am when the firecrackers stored inside the vacant shop caught fire. The flames quickly intensified, engulfing the stock of firecrackers and the garlic stored at the premises. The Talawade Fire Station received an emergency call at 1.25 am on Friday, following which two fire tenders were rushed to the spot. A team of 14 fire brigade personnel worked tirelessly to bring the blaze under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given the intensity of the fire, firefighting operations continued for nearly one and a half hours before the personnel successfully controlled the flames. The firecrackers, estimated to be worth Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 50,000, were completely destroyed. The garlic stock intended for sale in the market was also reduced to ashes, taking the total estimated loss to approximately Rs. 1 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident comes ahead of Diwali, when traders stock up on firecrackers and other goods for the festive season. Further details regarding the cause of the fire will be updated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fire Destroys Stock Worth Rs. 1 Lakh; Blaze Controlled After 90 Minutes Pimpri-Chinchwad : A major fire broke out at<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3543,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[57,56],"class_list":["post-3542","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pimpri-chinchwad","tag-maharashtra","tag-pcmc"],"magazineBlocksPostFeaturedMedia":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-150x150.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-300x170.jpg","medium_large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-768x435.jpg","large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg","1536x1536":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg","2048x2048":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg","colormag-highlighted-post":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-392x272.jpg","colormag-featured-post-medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-390x205.jpg","colormag-featured-post-small":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-130x90.jpg","colormag-featured-image":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg","colormag-default-news":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-150x150.jpg","colormag-featured-image-large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg"},"magazineBlocksPostAuthor":{"name":"Editor","avatar":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"magazineBlocksPostCommentsNumber":false,"magazineBlocksPostExcerpt":"Fire Destroys Stock Worth Rs. 1 Lakh; Blaze Controlled After 90 Minutes Pimpri-Chinchwad : A major fire broke out at","magazineBlocksPostCategories":["Pimpri Chinchwad"],"magazineBlocksPostViewCount":31,"magazineBlocksPostReadTime":2,"magazine_blocks_featured_image_url":{"full":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2.jpg",783,444,false],"medium":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-300x170.jpg",300,170,true],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2-150x150.jpg",150,150,true]},"magazine_blocks_author":{"display_name":"Editor","author_link":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/?author=3"},"magazine_blocks_comment":0,"magazine_blocks_author_image":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","magazine_blocks_category":"<a href=\"#\" class=\"category-link category-link-33\">Pimpri Chinchwad<\/a>","yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
