Agartala, 8th December 2025: Panic spread late Sunday night after a sudden fire broke out at a smoke center in South Charilam Choumuhani Para, under Bishramganj police station. The blaze erupted around 11 pm at the establishment owned by Bapon Shukla Das, quickly engulfing the premises.
Residents first noticed smoke and intense heat before realizing the center was ablaze. They immediately alerted the Fire department. A team from the fire service rushed to the spot and, after prolonged efforts, managed to bring the flames under control.
