प्रयागराज, यूपी : संगम नगरी में महाकुंभ के दौरान भीषण आग लग गई। मेला क्षेत्र के सेक्टर 19 में शास्त्री ब्रिज और रेलवे ब्रिज के बीच आग लगी, जिसमें लगभग 250 से ज्यादा टेंट जलकर खाक हो गए। दमकल की 15-16 गाड़ियां मौके पर पहुंचीं और कड़ी मशक्कत के बाद आग पर काबू पाया। अखाड़ा परिषद के अध्यक्ष रविंद्र पुरी ने कहा, "हादसा दुख का विषय है। सरकार ने पहले ही प्रयास किया था, पूरे मेला क्षेत्र में जहां बड़े-बड़े कैंप लगे हैं, वहां फायर ब्रिगेड है। हर अखाड़े के बगल में फायर ब्रिगेड की तैनाती है। फायर एक्सटिंग्विशर भी कैंपों में रखे हुए हैं। बहुत जल्द ही स्थिति पर काबू पा लिया गया, वरना बहुत बड़ा हादसा हो जाता। इसके लिए सरकार और अग्निशमन विभाग ने बहुत अच्छा काम किया है, वरना इतनी बड़ी आग को काबू करना कोई छोटी बात नहीं है। आज सुबह से ही हवा बहुत तेज थी। जब आग लगी तो हवा इतनी तेज चल रही थी कि आग तेजी से फैली...।"

00:00May God bless you all.
00:04It is a very sad matter.
00:06What happened today.
00:08The government had already tried
00:10in the entire Mela area
00:12where there are big camps
00:14there is a fire brigade.
00:16In all the Akhadas,
00:18there is a fire brigade.
00:20And a small gas cylinder
00:22is also kept here.
00:24Our attempt was
00:26that in all the camps
00:28the fire instrument
00:30should be used.
00:32And the government used it.
00:34And I think the situation
00:36got under control very soon.
00:38Otherwise a big accident happens.
00:40For this, the government
00:42has tried very well.
00:44Our fire brigade department
00:46has tried very well.
00:48Otherwise, it is not a small thing
00:50to control such a big fire.
00:52And we had seen from the morning
00:54when we were sitting in the morning
00:56that it will be very bad.
00:58And it happened that today
01:00when there was a fire
01:02and the whole air was burning so fast
01:04that the whole fire
01:06and the air above it
01:08spread all over.
01:10And I want to give a lot of blessings
01:12to the fire brigade,
01:14to the entire administration.
01:16They did a very good job.
01:18They controlled the fire very well.
01:20I bless everyone.
01:22When there is a fire somewhere,
01:24the fire brigade, the administration,
01:26the entire administration
01:28has come here.
01:30Look, such a big incident has happened.
01:32And I think the government
01:34has controlled it very quickly.
01:36Fire brigade officers,
01:38SSP, DDI,
01:40have done a good job.
01:42I want to tell you
01:44that we also have some shortcomings.
01:46Sometimes, we have electricity
01:48and a short circuit occurs.
01:50It happened once in our village.
01:52We have small gas cylinders to put out the fire, but today I have asked everyone to put water pots and sand pots wherever they sit, because it is very important.
02:13If there is a fire at this time, it will spread all over the area, and I think our government has done a good job, and this happens in every fair.
02:23The incident decreases a little, but today it has increased a little, so I would like to say that we also have to take care.
02:29The gas cylinder is kept inside, it explodes, when it explodes, you will understand what can happen at that time.
02:36I think this is a small incident, but it is a blessing for all of us.
02:42Otherwise, there would have been a fire in the entire fair area.
02:46But still people say that 250 huts have been burnt.
02:49Their 250 huts have been burnt, so I would like to say that we have to take care of ourselves.
02:55It is not that we leave it to the government.
02:57We have to take care of ourselves, we have to keep water, we have to keep sand, and we have to try to take care of all our electricity and light fittings.
