Fire at shop in Delhi’s Shaheen Bagh

A fire broke out at a shop in southeast Delhi’s Shaheen Bagh area on Sunday night, an official said.

The fire is under control and no injury has been reported so far, the official added.

A call was received at 8.46 pm and four fire tenders were pressed into service to douse the blaze at the shop, Delhi Fire Services Director Atul Garg said.

A months-long sit-in in the area against the contentious citizenship law, National Register of Citizens and the National Population Register was recently cleared by the police.
