A severe fire erupted early Sunday morning at the Superintendent of Taxes office in the center of Assam’s Dhekiajuli town.

The blaze, which began around 4 AM, completely destroyed important documents, computers, and files stored in the office. The office, located on the second floor of a four-storey apartment building, was heavily impacted by the flames.

Local residents suspect that the fire may have been deliberately set by miscreants. Fortunately, the fire brigade arrived swiftly and managed to extinguish the blaze before it could spread to other floors of the building. Furthermore, no casualties have been reported, and all occupants were safe.
