Two people sustained burn injuries after a fire broke out in a residential building here on Saturday, an official said.

The incident was reported around 11.15 a.m. from Vasant Kunj in south Delhi.

"Two fire tenders were rushed to the spot that took an hour to douse the blaze," said a Delhi Fire Service officer.
