UDHAMPUR, Mar 14: A house was completely gutted in the accidental fire at village Upper Barmeen in Ghordi Block of Udhampur District, this evening.
However, no one was injured in the fire that broke out in the house of Lai, son of Mohamed Ali.
The house was completely gutted in the accidental fire as there is no fire brigade faculty in this hilly area. Even as the family members, with the help of local villagers, tried to control the blazes, the wooden house virtually reduced to ashes within no time.
Exact cause of fire and approximate loss in the incident could not be assessed immediately. The affected family has been shifted to a nearby house.
