Nearly 300 cars were completely gutted after a fire broke out at the Aero India show in Bengaluru on Saturday.

The fire was fully extinguished after 10 fire force teams and 5 fire engines fought the fire under the leadership of Cheif Fire Officer, West, reported MN Reddi, Director General, Fire and Emergency Services.
Firefighters were seen struggling to put out and contain the flames that licked through dry grass.
"Fire spread is controlled by creating a gap by removing adjacent cars. Fire under control now," reported Reddi.
The likely cause of the blaze was dry grass fire aided by heavy winds, Reddi said. No injuries or harm to people reported.
