However, before they could bring the situation under control, the blaze had already spread, engulfing parked vehicles and the grocery store.
Fire Service officials added that the cause of the fire is yet to be determined. However, an investigation is underway to assess the extent of the damage in the area.
In a separate incident last week, a major fire broke out at an e-rickshaw warehouse in Goyla Dairy, Najafgarh.
The blaze charred over 100 e-rickshaws, causing significant losses. The DFS deployed four fire tenders to the site to contain the fire and prevent it from spreading further.
