A massive fire broke out late at night in a high-rise residential building located in the upscale Vesu area of Surat, causing panic. The fire occurred in the C-tower of Jainam The Grand Ultima, where smoke and flames were seen rising suddenly from the ninth and tenth floors.
Most families were asleep in their flats at the time of the incident. According to reports, thick smoke filled the stairs and lobby within minutes after the fire broke out in this 13-story building located near the famous Agarwal School. Residents on the upper floors were unable to descend, and many families called for help from their balconies.
The incident created an atmosphere of terror in the entire area. Upon receiving the information, several teams from the fire department arrived at the scene. Considering the seriousness of the situation, a state-of-the-art 90-meter hydraulic platform vehicle was also deployed.
Firefighters conducted a risky rescue operation, safely bringing over 60 people, including children, women, and the elderly, out of the building. The fire team reached the height of the building with the help of the hydraulic platform and directly sprayed water on the fire, eventually bringing it under control after a long struggle. The timely rescue operation averted a major disaster.
