Local risks in Deoria

Hut and house fires

Early on 21 October 2026 a hut caught fire in Nonapar village, under Bhatni police station, while the family slept; three deaths were reported on the first day and later reports counted a fourth, and the cause was not settled. On 6 July 2026 a gas leak from a cooking cylinder set a tin-shed house on fire in Madhopur village, and villagers and the police put it out. We cover the Nonapar fire in a case study.

Gorra, Rapti, Ghaghra and Gandak floods

On 3 October 2026 the Gorra stood 10 cm above its danger mark at Rudrapur and water collected in colonies on the edge of the town. In early September 2026 four rivers were rising together, the Tighra-Marachhi embankment showed erosion and flood posts were set up.

Road crashes on district roads

On the night of 18 April 2022 an SUV carrying people home from a wedding hit a bus near Indrapur village on the Gauribazar to Rudrapur road. Six people died and about 12 were injured.

Ponds and bathing

After a Ganesh idol immersion at a pond near the Gayatri Mandir in Deoria city on 18 September 2026, a 21-year-old went in to bathe and did not come out. Police reached the pond through a 112 call and the body was found about 12 hours later, with SDRF help.

Fire stations in Deoria

2 stations. Tap Call to ring the station office.

Station	Area	Contact
Deoria Fire Station	Deoria district · Deoria	Call 101
Rudrapur (Mahiganj) Fire Station	Deoria district · Rudrapur (Mahiganj)	Call 101

Two stations are listed for Deoria district, and the list may not name every station or seasonal post. Both rows print the same contact line, so no phone is shown. In an emergency, call 112 or 101 first; station lines are office numbers.

Stay safe: quick checklist

Save 112, 101 and 108 in your phone today. We could not confirm a Deoria fire control room number, so call 112 or 101 for a fire. The flood office line is 05568-222459 in office hours.
In a hut or a thatched house, keep the stove well away from where people sleep, keep a bucket of water and sand near the door, and have loose wiring fixed. Never sleep with the only door bolted from outside, and agree on an exit with the family.
If you smell gas, do not light a flame or switch anything on. Open doors, take everyone outside and call 1906 or 112 from a safe distance.

When the Gorra or Rapti is near its danger mark, stay off embankments such as Tighra-Marachhi and the riverside colonies near Rudrapur. Move cattle, grain and papers early and follow the district administration's notices.
Do not bathe alone in ponds or rivers, especially after a festival immersion when people are tired and the water is deep. Call 112 at once if someone goes missing and give the exact pond or ghat.
Cool the burn under cool, clean running water for 20 minutes. Even 10 minutes helps if that's all you can manage. No ice, toothpaste, oil or butter.
