In a devastating fire which broke out at about 2 am On Tuesday a dwelling house completely reduced to ashes resulting to a heavy loss of ornaments, cash and belongings and important documents belonging to house owner and tenants.

The fire was so strong that nothing could be saved other than dwellers’ lives. The cause of the fire could not be ascertained as there was no power and there was heavy rain. Neighbors faced a tough time to douse the fire as there was no fire service at Harangajao. The impact of the fire was so strong that within one and half hours, ten numbers of rooms of the house were completely gutted and even the neighbors also felt the impact of fire.

The Son-in-law of the house owner said they have lost many things including important documents and failed to understand how the fire caught so suddenly and engulfed the entire house where there was no possible known source of fire in the vicinity.

People of Harangajao are of the opinion that if there was a fire service at Harangajao, then such type of incident could be avoided.
