Howrah: Fire broke out at a jute mill in West Bengal’s Howrah district on Sunday, officials said.
There was no report of any casualty in the fire that broke out at Belvedere Jute Mill in the Sankrail area in the afternoon, they said.
Six fire tenders managed to douse the blaze in an hour, officials said.
