Silvassa: At least two people including the owner of a nail polish factory in Silvassa, the headquarter town of the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Havel adjoining South Gujarat, died today due to a massive fire that broke out in their factory today.

Station Fire Officer of Silvassa C M Rohit said that the fire broke out in Shreeji Trading, the Nail polish company in Ambali area here near our fire station at around 1230 hrs. But as there were chemicals in it, the fire took some time to control.
Its owner identified as Shersinh Padamsinh Rajput (37) and his worker Ashokbhia Chhatrabhai Koli (22) who were inside the factory were trapped in the fire that engulfed the factory quickly due to presence of chemical inside. Both of them died. Their charred body were recovered later. Both of them were natives of Rajasthan.

Other workers also work in the factory but as today was Sunday only the owner and the other man had come there, the fire officer said adding that the exact reason behind the fire was not yet known.
