More than 300 two-wheelers were burnt in flames in a private showroom-cum-godown, located near Benz Circle, in the wee hours on August 24. However, no casualties were reported.
Additional Director of AP State Disaster Response and Fire Services (North Region), G. Srinivasulu said the a few workers noticed fire in the showroom while they were unloading the stock around 4.50 a.m.
“Six fire tenders from Auto Nagar, Krishnalanka and other stations rushed to the spot and put off the flames,” Mr. Srinivasulu told The Hindu.
