While I appreciate the quick response, the article repeats information about the 14 fire tenders twice. Editors should catch these small errors to maintain credibility.

My cousin lives near Keshav Puram and sent me photos. The smoke was visible from kilometers away. Terrifying to think how quickly these things can escalate.
