Massive Fire Erupts at Moradabad’s RH International Factory: What Happened Near Ekta Vihar?

A massive fire has broken out at the RH International factory near Ekta Vihar, beside MDA Colony on North Rampur Road in Moradabad, creating an alarming situation in the surrounding area.

According to preliminary local information, the blaze appeared intense, prompting concern among residents living close to the factory. The incident has drawn attention because the industrial premises are situated near a populated locality.

The exact circumstances in which the fire started remain unclear. There is currently no confirmed information regarding injuries, casualties or whether anyone was trapped inside the factory when the incident occurred.

The nature and value of the material stored inside RH International, as well as the extent of damage caused to the factory, have also not yet been officially established. A detailed assessment will likely be possible only after the flames are brought under control and the affected premises are inspected.

Residents and commuters have been advised to remain cautious and avoid gathering close to the site, as heavy smoke and emergency movement can make the surrounding roads unsafe.

The cause of the blaze—whether linked to an electrical short circuit, machinery, inflammable material or another factor—can be determined only after an official investigation. Any claim about the cause at this stage would be premature.

Further information from the Moradabad administration, police and fire department is awaited. This is a developing story, and the report will be updated once authorities confirm the number of fire tenders deployed, the scale of losses and whether anyone has been injured.
