Fire at Goa medical college, no casualties reported

PANAJI: Consultations at the Out patient department (OPD) of Goa medical college and hospital - state's premier government hospital at Bambolim - had to be cancelled for the day due to a fire in the building Tuesday morning.

The fire gutted the pharmacy of government-run Goa anti-biotic pharmaceutical Ltd (GAPL) on the ground floor of the OPD block. There were no casualties official sources said.

"The fire started at GAPL pharmacy store room in the morning and we immediately called the fire tenders. But the smoke filled the OPD section disrupting OPD services. Hence we had to cancel the OPD for today", Dean of GMC Dr V N Jindal told TOI.

Fire services officials said that they rushed to the hospital and doused the fire before it could spread to the other wings. The cause of fire is being ascertained.

The dean also said that Goa infrastructure development corporation (GSIDC) will be asked to check the building whether it is safe to resume with the OPD. He said if the report is negative, then the OPD will be held in the nearby Yatri Niwas building from Thursday, tomorrow being a public holiday in Goa.
