A massive fire broke out late Sunday night at a chemical factory in Ibrahimpur village in Uttarakhand's Haridwar district, prompting an immediate response from police and fire department officials.
Emergency teams rushed to the scene in an effort to control the flames, which quickly engulfed parts of the facility. Initial reports indicate that several workers were inside the factory when the fire started, and some are still feared to be trapped.
The rescue operation has been complicated by the intensity of the blaze, thick smoke, and the presence of hazardous materials, which have made it difficult for emergency personnel to access certain areas. Haridwar Superintendent of Police Pankaj Gairola confirmed the incident and stated that one person has been admitted to the hospital so far.
He added that efforts are ongoing to extinguish the fire and ensure the safety of anyone who may still be inside. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined, and officials are continuing their investigation.
