A major fire that devastated a mall in Mumbai’s upscale Bandra area was controlled after more than 22 hours of firefighting, civic officials said on Wednesday.
The blaze erupted around 4.10 am on Tuesday in the basement of Link Square Mall on Linking Road in Bandra West and was extinguished at 1.41 am on Wednesday after efforts by fire brigade personnel and other emergency services, the officials said.
There was no report of anybody getting injured, they said.
Initially confined to an electronics goods showroom, the flames quickly engulfed the upper floors of the three-storey mall, which houses over 200 commercial establishments and shops, and completely gutted it.
