On Saturday, a massive fire broke out in an abandoned house near Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh’s official residence in Imphal, according to officials.
The cause of the fire has yet to be determined, officials said.
Police stated the abandoned residence belonged to Thangkhopao Kipgen, Goa’s former chief secretary.
Kipgen died on March 3, 2005, and his family occupied the residence.
The house is next to the Kuki Inn complex, which is across from the Chief Minister’s House in Babupara, Imphal.
The incident occurred around 5:30 PM IST on Saturday.
According to Manipur Fire Service officials, the house had been abandoned for more than a year, making it difficult to extinguish and manage the fire.
Three fire tenders were dispatched, and the fire was extinguished within an hour.
Since the house’s roof was made of wood and galvanized tin, firemen needed more than an hour to extinguish the fire, with the help of a Thoubal district reinforcement team.
The building that caught fire is also next to the office of the Kuki Inpi, a Kuki tribe civil society organization.
