A Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) road cleaning vehicle suddenly caught fire late Saturday night near the Telangana Assembly in Hyderabad. The driver, noticing the fire in time, quickly exited the vehicle, escaping without injury and preventing a major mishap.
Firefighters reached the scene swiftly after receiving an alert. Their prompt response ensured that the flames were extinguished before they could spread or cause further damage. Fortunately, the incident occurred on a relatively quiet stretch, which helped control the situation without disruption to traffic or public safety.
Authorities have confirmed that no casualties occurred. However, the exact cause of the fire is still under investigation. Officials suspect the blaze could have been caused by a mechanical fault or short circuit, and GHMC is expected to launch an internal probe into the matter.
