17 people of the same family died after a house fire in a busy market area near Charminar in Hyderabad. After the fire, the local residents first tried to control the fire and started taking out the people trapped inside. & Nbsp;
Zaheer, who did a bangle business, was also among the local residents who helped the people trapped in the house. After this incident, he spoke to NDTV and told about a heartbreaking scene. Zaheer said that when he went inside the house, he saw that a woman had embraced her child from flames to save her child, in which she also died by burning. & nbsp;
The house caught fire, the sleeping people did not even get a clue
According to the information received so far, due to electricity reasons in the house, there was a fire and all the people were sleeping, so they could not know about the fire. Due to the house being quite narrow, there were problems in rescue work. Most of the shops in this market are quite old and rooms are built on them. Most windows of homes are closed due to AC walking at night. In case of fire, smoke can accumulate in small rooms. Apart from this, there is only one very narrow entrance to reach the rooms.
17 people of the same family died
Zaheer said that it was difficult to go inside due to the gateway being very narrow. With great difficulty, we were able to get 13 people out and due to smoke we could not see anything. He told that we also dropped a wall to go inside. Regarding the death of the people, Zaheer said that most of them died and the rest of the smoke would have killed due to suffocation.
According to a statement by Telangana Fire Department, 17 dead have been identified. Of them, there are 8 children, one of which is the smallest. Apart from this, there are four elderly and 5 are women. Only one member of the family survived because she went out for a walk.
