The incident is suspected to have been caused by a cylinder blast in which one person was injured, Hindustan Times reported.

According to police, a fire call was received around 6:30 pm in the evening on Saturday

The accident took place in Sadar Bazaar's new parking area, adjacent to the Khursheed market in the city, the report said.

A huge crowd gathered at the accident site as officials took stock of the situation.

“I can not say anything now police are investigating. At around 6 pm, I heard a loud blast when I was sitting inside my shop. I can't say if the blast was in the water motor, let them investigate,” the owner of the shop told news agency ANI.
