KARACHI: A massive fire broke out at the Budget Bazaar departmental store in Gulshan-e-Iqbal’s Karachi Development Authority (KDA) market on Thursday.

Although 50 per cent of the fire was put out by fire brigade vehicles by 2 pm, three vehicles remained there to put out the remaining flames.

Fire department officials while speaking to the media said that they had ensured that the fire would not spread any further, adding that it would take hours to extinguish it completely.

According to the details, the fire erupted in the basement of the garment store.

Although no casualties were reported in the incident, a fire-fighter collapsed during the operation because of inhaling the smoke. He was immediately admitted in Patel Hospital where his condition was said to be stable.
