On 23 July 2024 a fire in an ice cube plant in Sirhind gutted the machinery, two deep freezers and stock, and the town's fire engines took about two hours to put it out. The owner believed a short circuit started it and put the loss at Rs 12 to 15 lakh.
In December 2025 the state said millions of devotees were expected at the Shaheedi Sabha at Fatehgarh Sahib, with 60 ambulances and fire brigade vehicles kept on standby. A crowd that large can block lanes and slow help.
After 24 hours of rain on 9 July 2023, Sirhind, Bassi Pathana, Mandi Gobindgarh, Amloh and Khamano were flooded because drains were choked and pumping was poor. Water from the Sirhind choe entered a university campus and students were evacuated from a hostel, and rail traffic on the Sirhind to Una line was disrupted.
The state disaster plan places Fatehgarh Sahib in the low damage risk zone for earthquakes. Low is not zero, so weak and old buildings still need checking.
