Eight people, including three women and a child, lost their lives in a major fire at a factory in Solapur district, Maharashtra, on Sunday, officials reported. Initial findings suggest an electrical short circuit sparked the blaze around 3:45 am at Central Textile Mills on Akkalkot Road in Solapur MIDC, approximately 400 km from Mumbai.
The victims include the factory owner, Haji Usman Hasanbhai Mansuri, three of his family members—among them his one-and-a-half-year-old grandson—and four workers. According to an official, three of the deceased were women.
