"Should be no such accident in future": G Kishan Reddy on calls for high-level committee after Sangareddy factory blast kills 34

Sangareddy (Telangana) [India], July 2 (ANI): Following the Sigachi Pharma chemical factory explosion in Telangana's Sangareddy district that claimed 34 lives, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy has called for the formation of a high-level committee to prevent such incidents in the future.
Reddy said that after receiving information about the blast, the Prime Minister's Office immediately responded by coordinating with the Home Ministry and ordering the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) to extend all necessary assistance.
"... The PM's office immediately spoke with the Home Ministry and ordered the National Disaster Relief Force (NDRF) to extend whatever help it needs... There are many such factories in the city of Hyderabad related to pharma and other industries of different sectors... For such industries, a high-level committee should be formed where various teams should visit. There should be no such accident in the future, and measures should be taken for relief to prevent accidents," Reddy told ANI.
Telangana BJP President N Ramchander Rao called the incident "very serious" and demanded a thorough investigation into the cause.
"This is a very serious and gruesome factory accident. Such incidents must not be repeated. The BJP demands that the Inspector of Factories and other responsible departments conduct inspections of all industries in the area. There must be a full inquiry to determine whether the negligence was on the part of the management, the factory inspector, or the inspector of boilers," Rao said.
The death toll in the Sigachi Pharma explosion rose to 34, with over a dozen workers injured in the incident that occurred on Monday in the Pasamailaram Phase 1 area of Sangareddy district.
Earlier, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K Kavitha visited a hospital in Patancheru on Tuesday and met with some of the injured victims.
She alleged that the explosion happened due to negligence by the state government and demanded compensation of Rs 1 crore for the families of the deceased.(ANI)
