A fire broke out on the fourth floor of a high-rise apartment in the Urbana Complex in South Kolkata's Anandapur area on Monday, fire officials said. The fire department received a call at 10.51 am about the blaze in the apartment, following which one fire tender was rushed to the spot. ADVERTISEMENTHowever, the building's internal firefighting system had already brought the flames under control before the fire tender arrived, officials said. The recent incident stirred panic among residents, as it comes less than a month after a massive fire in the Nazirabad area of Anandapur, behind the Urbana Complex. There were also residents from West Midnapore and South 24 Parganas.
