New Delhi: A fire broke out at the All India Congress Committee office on Akbar Road office in New Delhi on Wednesday (April 6) evening.

The fire officials said they received a call around 7.30 pm today and two fire tenders were rushed to the spot. They attributed the blaze to an electric fault in the compressor of an air-conditioner.

"The firemen doused the flames in just 30 minutes and even the cooling process was immediately completed," IANS quoted an official as saying. He added that some dry leaves on the roof of the Congress office had caught the fire.
