Moving car catches fire in Bhubaneswar

Bhubaneswar: A moving car caught fire on NH 16 near the Nayapalli Durga Pandap in Bhubaneswar, this evening while it was heading towards Rasulgarh from the Khandagiri.

While the exact reason of the fire is yet to be ascertained, it is suspected that the inferno might have occurred due to a short circuit.

The driver, resident of Bihar, along with his five other family members were traveling in the car when the vehicle caught fire all of a sudden. However, all of them had a narrow escape as they managed to get out of the four-wheeler before the inferno intensified and engulfed the car.

Soon, a team of firefighters rushed to the spot after getting information and doused the fire.
