Fire Destroys House in Vidavaluru, Family Escapes
A family in a small village in Nellore district had a scary experience when their house caught fire late at night.
They managed to escape safely, but the fire destroyed everything inside the house.
The fire started because of an electrical problem, and it caused a lot of damage.
The family is now asking the government for help to rebuild their home.
The local fire department quickly put out the fire, but it was too late to save the house.
The village is sad that this happened during the New Year celebrations, leaving the family without a home.
A fire destroyed a house in Ramalingapuram, Vidavaluru mandal, Nellore district late Wednesday night.
The family of Govindu escaped unharmed but lost all their belongings, including cash and valuables.
The fire was caused by an electrical short circuit, with an estimated loss of ₹5 lakh.
Fire personnel extinguished the flames, but the house was completely gutted.
The family has appealed to the government and local MLA Prasanthi Reddy for financial assistance to rebuild their home.
