Fire crews reached Aranya Society soon after the alert. They worked to stop the flames from spreading to other apartments.
An AC fault is being discussed as a possible cause. Officials have not confirmed that yet.
Firefighters Respond Swiftly

The fast response helped bring the fire under control. It did not spread further.
Cause Yet to Be Officially Confirmed
Early reports from the scene suggested the fire may have started after an AC unit malfunctioned. Even so, fire officials say the exact cause is still unknown. They will confirm it only after a detailed inspection of the apartment and nearby electrical systems.
Investigators are checking several possible causes. These include an appliance failure, an electrical short circuit, or another technical fault.
No Casualties Reported
