During festivities marking PM Modi's re-election, a fire erupted at the BJP office in Indore due to fireworks setting ablaze waste materials on the fourth floor. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire, preventing significant damage or injuries.

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A fire broke out at the BJP office in Madhya Pradesh's Indore during celebrations marking PM Modi's third term in office. The incident took place at 9:15 PM on June 9, coinciding with the oath-taking ceremony of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Cabinet ministers at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi.

As soon as the information was received the fire tenders reached the spot and doused the fire. According to Indore ACP Tushar Singh, "While the BJP workers were celebrating under the BJP office with fireworks, one of the rockets or firecrackers ignited a fire on the top floor of the office, the 4th floor."
