Fire guts building, locals save man in Kolkata

A 65-year-old partially paralysed patient, who was locked in a room, had a miraculous escape on Sunday when a fire gutted the first floor of his five-storey building on Sovabazar Street in north Kolkata. The man, Gouranga Mukherjee, was saved by his neighbours, who broke open the door of his room. His wife Bela was away from home and on being alerted about the fire, she rushed back and raised an alarm. The building, where the fire took place, houses a popular restaurant of the area.
