by Fire Breaks Out in Idar
Sabarkantha, March 28, 2025 – A shocking case of UGVCL negligence has struck again, this time setting a wheat field ablaze along Laloda Road in Idar. Late on March 27, flames tore through the crops, leaving farmers reeling from the loss. This 2025 fire has sparked outrage, with locals pointing fingers at the Uttar Gujarat Vij Company Limited (UGVCL) for yet another slip-up in Sabarkantha.
Wheat Crop Gutted
The blaze hit hard near Laloda Road, turning a thriving wheat field into ashes in no time. Eyewitnesses say the fire started near power lines, hinting at UGVCL’s faulty wiring as the culprit. By the time help arrived, the farmer’s hard work was gone, swallowed by flames that locals say could’ve been stopped with better care from the power company in this Idar disaster.
Farmers Suffer Big Loss
For the farmer behind this wheat crop, the damage is a gut punch. Months of sweat and money went up in smoke, with the fire wiping out what could’ve been a solid harvest in 2025. Posts on X peg the loss at several lakh rupees, and the Sabarkantha farming community is fuming – how many more hits can they take from UGVCL negligence?
UGVCL Under Fire Again
This isn’t the first mess tied to UGVCL in Sabarkantha. Just days ago, similar sparks torched fields in Vijayanagar, and now Idar’s Laloda Road joins the list. People are asking why the company can’t fix its act – loose wires and old poles keep spelling trouble. The 2025 negligence streak has folks demanding answers and action fast.
What’s Next for Relief?
Angry voices want UGVCL to pay up for the farmer’s loss and fix their system before more fields burn. The Sabarkantha administration is under pressure too – will they step in? For now, the wheat field fire leaves a bitter taste in Idar, and trust in UGVCL is at an all-time low as 2025 rolls on.
