A fire was spotted near the security check-in area about 9:20 p.m., according to Hindustan Times Bangla. Two fire trucks arrived on the site. Officials have reported no injuries.
By 9:40 p.m., the fire had been entirely extinguished. Because of the high volume of passengers, airport officials took no chances and employed their firefighters to extinguish the fire. "It's under control right now," a police officer remarked, "and the cooling process is underway." Following a preliminary investigation, officials determined that the incident was possibly caused by a short circuit.
"A minor fire and smoke were detected on the check-in area portal D at 2112 p.m. and were completely out by 2140 p.m." The process has been suspended due to the presence of smoke in the check-in area, and all passengers have been safely evacuated.

The fire was most likely ignited by a short circuit, but only a comprehensive examination will disclose the specific reason.
