A major fire broke out at the PlayGro Toys manufacturing unit in Rohad, Bahadurgarh, on the evening of October 22, 2025, causing extensive damage to machinery, molds, and stored materials. The fire is suspected to have originated from an electrical short circuit and spread rapidly through the premises due to the presence of plastic and rubber components.

Emergency services were informed soon after the fire was noticed, and fire brigades from Bahadurgarh, Jhajjar, Kharkhoda, and Sampla were mobilized. Several fire engines worked through the evening to bring the blaze under control and prevent its spread to nearby areas.

Workers were safely evacuated as part of the response effort, and coordination between factory staff and local authorities supported the containment operations. The fire caused substantial material losses, estimated in several crores, and a detailed assessment of damage is underway.

Local fire officials have indicated that preliminary findings point to an electrical fault, though a full investigation will be conducted to confirm the cause.
