A fire broke out in a room of the Physics Department of Barkatullah University in the morning on Friday. After which the fire was brought under control in about half an hour.
According to people associated with the department, this fire started after a blast in the AC. After which within a few minutes the fire spread throughout the room.
Information about the incident was immediately given to the security in-charge. After which the guards and other departmental people present there extinguished the fire with water.
In this matter, NSUI leader Ravi Parmar has alleged that the cause of the fire in the Physics Department appears to be suspicious, because neither the police nor the fire department was informed about the matter, the fire was also extinguished. It is believed that many important records have been destroyed and it seems that the administration of BU is engaged in concealing facts. An inquiry committee should be formed in this matter, so that the truth can come out. The committee will decide whether the fire has started or was set. On the other hand, Barkatullah management is silent on this matter.
According to the employees working in the department, when the AC was opened around 10:30 in the morning, there was a blast in it, after which the fire immediately spread all around the room.
The security incharge at Anand Fanand called all the guards in the department and the fire could be extinguished in about half an hour with the water available nearby. It is being told that many other employees sit in this room opposite to the Physics HOD's room and many important documents are also kept here. Which are completely burnt. Apart from this, the fridge, AC, cooler and other items have also been burnt here.
He seems to be avoiding talking about this matter. We tried calling Barkatullah University Vice Chancellor SK Jain, Registrar IK Mansoori and department head Sadhna Singh, who did not receive calls. Whereas BUIT Director Neeraj Gaur said that he does not have complete information in this regard, if we talk to the concerned department about the matter, something could be known.
