News India Live, Digital Desk: There is no telling of life, when happiness turns into sorrow. A very sad and heartbreaking news has come from Bettiah, Bihar. Here, a terrible fire caused by a short circuit not only took away the shelter of a family, but also took away their 7-year-old innocent son from them forever.
What happened was that suddenly there was a short circuit in the electrical wires in the house and within no time the fire took a huge form. At that time, there was a lot of stuff in the house, but a small innocent child was also trapped among it. By the time the family members could understand anything or people outside could run for help, the fire had spread so much that the entire house was engulfed in flames. Unfortunately, the 7-year-old boy could not save himself from the fire and was burnt alive inside the house.
Neighbors and family members saw the apple of their eye and their entire savings burning in front of their eyes, but the fire was so terrible that no one could do anything. By the time fire engines arrived and the fire was brought under control, everything was reduced to ashes. There was nothing left except a pile of debris and ashes.
This accident has once again forced us to think whether we pay attention to electrical fittings and safety in our homes? We often ignore short circuit as a small matter, but this scene of Bettiah reminds us that a small spark is enough to destroy an entire family.
There is mourning in the area after this incident. Everyone is numb after seeing the painful death of that innocent child and the grief of the homeless family. The administration is now talking about relief and help, but how can anyone compensate for the grief of those parents who lost their son and their home in an instant?
