Local risks in Firozabad

Firecracker stores inside homes

On the night of Monday 16 September 2024, around 10.30 pm, a blast in a firecracker godown-cum-factory in the Naushera area of Shikohabad brought the walls down on the family living inside. Five people died, including two children and a woman, and 11 were injured; no cause was stated.

Shop-below, home-above buildings

On Tuesday 29 November 2022, a fire in a building with an electronics and furniture shop on the ground floor and the family home above killed at least six members of the family, three of them children. Police said a short circuit was the likely cause.

Factory fires and thin water supply

On Sunday 4 October 2026, a large fire broke out at a tyre-retreading factory in Naushehra, and tenders came from across the district. The fire officer reported a slight water shortage because the factory pump was damaged, and the cause was not known. The factory had also had a fire earlier this year.

Dengue and full hospital wards

In August and September 2021, 41 people had died by 2 September, 36 of them children, in a dengue-led fever outbreak that spread through waterlogged, dirty areas. More than 200 children were admitted to the medical college and government beds ran short.

Night village processions on through roads

On the night of 25 October 2026 (Sharad Purnima), a speeding car hit villagers, mostly women and children, carrying Teshu and Jhanjhi figures for immersion on the Shikohabad-Bateshwar road near Chhatanpur. Five deaths were reported later and alcohol was suspected but not confirmed, as we cover in a case study.

Stay safe: quick checklist

Save 112, 101, 108 and 100 in your phone today. We could not confirm a Firozabad fire control room number, so call 101 or 112 for a fire and give the landmark and the lane.
Never store firecrackers, gunpowder or gas cylinders in a room where people sleep. If you make or sell crackers, keep stock in a licensed place away from homes, not in a godown with a family living above it.
If you run a shop with your home above it, fit a smoke alarm on the upper floor, keep one stair clear of stock, and have the wiring and AC checked every year.
In a factory or workshop, clear scrap tyres, rubber and packing from the yard, keep a water tank or hydrant that does not depend on one pump, and walk the evacuation route twice a year.

After the rains, clear standing water around the house every week, use nets, and take a child with a fever of more than two days to a doctor at once instead of waiting.
For a night procession on a through road, put adults at the front and back with torches, keep children in the middle away from the carriageway, and do not chase a speeding car on a motorbike. Note its number and call 112.
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.
