Ankleshwar : A major fire engulfed Chemex Limited, a prominent chemical manufacturing company located in Ankleshwar GIDC, Bharuch district, early Wednesday morning. Fortunately, no casualties have been reported in the incident, confirmed official sources.

The blaze erupted suddenly, prompting an immediate response from the fire department. Within minutes, 15 fire tenders rushed to the scene to combat the raging flames.
