The fire seen in the UPS room of the causality ward in the block led to the evacuation of around 200 patients from several wards of the six-story building, but there were no reports of any casualty or injury.
Hospital Superintendent Dr Sreejayan said an explosion was reported late in the evening inside the CT Scan room, due to suspected short circuit from the UPS installed in the room. Following this a large amount of smoke was seen.
