New Delhi, Oct 22 (PTI) Two children were rescued after an electric scooter and a motorcycle caught fire in Delhi’s Balbir Nagar Extension in the early hours of Thursday, a Delhi Fire Service official said.

The fire broke out around 1.50 am, prompting the DFS to rush multiple fire tenders to the spot.

“Two children, Daksh (16) and Kavya (15), were trapped inside a ground-floor room as smoke spread through the building. A member of the fire services team rescued them, and they were taken to GTB Hospital. Doctors at the hospital said both children were normal,” the officer said.

The fire involved an electric scooter and a motorcycle and was brought under control at 2.10 am. The cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained. PTI BM NB

Nine Years, Made Possible by Readers

In 2017, Shekhar Gupta started ThePrint with a simple belief: Indian readers want journalism that asks why and what next, not just what. And that enough of them would be willing to pay for good journalism.

Nine years on, that belief has held.

And, in these nine years, we’ve stayed true to our mission. We’ve been asking the follow-up questions, going beyond the headlines and explaining what’s actually happening. We’ve travelled across the country to bring you in-depth, visually-compelling stories from the ground.

It’s been nine years of readers choosing to make this possible. If you’d like to be one of them:
