Jajpur road: Three brothers were rendered homeless after their 12 roomed house was reduced to ashes in a massive fire breakout over unknown reason at Dhantari village under Panikoili police limits in Jajpur district late Monday night.
Sources said, the incident occurred while the victims were asleep after dinner. Fire broke out in a room and soon engulfed the whole house.
