IAF helicopters help bring Kasauli forest fire under control

The fire that erupted in the forest near the air force station in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh’s Solan district, on Sunday was brought under control on Monday after hours of fighting.

“It was difficult. “The fire has been brought under control thanks to the tireless efforts of the air force personnel and firefighters,” Kasauli sub divisional magistrate Sanjeev Dhiman said. “There are flames visible near the clubhouse,” Dhiman said, “but we are hopeful that we will be able to put the fire out by afternoon.”

Because Kasauli lacks a fire station, fire tenders were dispatched from Solan and Parwanoo, an industrial town on the Himachal-Haryana border, around 9.30 a.m. The fire departments travelled nearly an hour and a half from both stations to reach Kasauli, which has nearly 400 hotels.

Official sources say the fire started at 6.30 a.m. on Sunday on a hilltop near the air force station. Because fire trucks couldn’t get to the scene, the air force deployed its choppers to put out the fires that threatened to spread to a residential area.

During the day-long operation, four people were injured, including three firefighters. Rishu Aggarwal, a local contractor, was among the injured.

The three firefighters were taken to Chandigarh’s Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research with burns ranging from 10% to 30%. They were identified as firefighter Jagdish Sharma, firefighter Mohinder Sharma, and a member of the home guard Satish Kumar.

The fire was brought under control by evening due to the high-speed wind, but it spread again this morning at 4.30 a.m.

Throughout the day, Kasauli was engulfed in a plume of thick smoke billowing from the forest as dry pine needles caught fire.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is quitting the Late Night programme.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is thinking about leaving his late-night show to devote more time to his son Billy’s continuous struggle with congenital heart problems.

This week, a number of people with knowledge of the situation disclosed that Kimmel intends to leave Jimmy Kimmel Live! after his contract expires in 2025 in order to spend more time with his wife Molly McNearney, who co-head writes the show.

Kimmel’s choice, according to Radar Online, is a result of Billy’s health issues, especially in the wake of Billy’s most recent third open-heart surgery. But now he’s a “healthy kid.”

The Late Night presenter shared the news on Instagram in late May, saying, “We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid.”

Sources close to Radar Online claim that the Kimmels are getting ready to step back from the spotlight. According to an informant, Jimmy and his spouse prioritise their family over notoriety. They know what to do financially, so they’re prepared to step back from the spotlight and concentrate on what matters most.

“Life is too short to waste time on a job that brings you no happiness.”

Kimmel’s spokesperson denied the findings.
Even though Kimmel’s publicist denied any talks regarding his possible resignation and called the claim “silly,” especially in light of his son’s recent surgery.

“Though they’ll likely stay busy producing and developing shows behind the scenes, their main focus will be spending precious time with their family,” an insider was quoted by Perez Hilton.

Billy’s congenital heart issue was initially made public by Kimmel in 2017, not long after Billy was born, along with the difficulties his family was facing. Billy was born with a heart condition, according to an echocardiography, a type of cardiac sonography that was performed, Kimmel disclosed on his show.

“Tetralogy of Fallot associated with pulmonary atresia.” In essence, there is a hole in the wall separating his left and right sides of the heart, and the pulmonary valve was totally obstructed.

Three days after his birth, Billy had his first successful open-heart surgery. A few months later, he had another one. Billy had his third operation last month at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. This was his most recent procedure.
