A massive fire broke out at Kolkata’s Blue Cherry Guest House’s rooftop on Thursday.
Three fire tenders were pressed into service to douse the blaze, which was first reported around 1 PM.
"Firefighting is underway. We are ensuring that no one is trapped inside the building," an officer was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
Prima facie, the fire broke out due to an electrical short circuit, the officer added.
No injuries were reported so far.
The fire is said to be under control.
