Following the tragic explosion at the Sigachi Pharma chemical factory in Sangareddy district, Telangana, which resulted in 34 fatalities, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy has advocated for the establishment of a high-level committee. This committee’s primary objective is to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. Reddy highlighted the swift response from the Prime Minister’s Office, which, upon receiving news of the blast, coordinated with the Home Ministry and directed the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) to provide comprehensive assistance. He emphasized the need for such committees to inspect the numerous pharmaceutical and other industrial facilities in Hyderabad and surrounding areas. The goal is to proactively implement safety measures and ensure such accidents are averted. Telangana BJP President N Ramchander Rao also expressed grave concern, labeling the incident as ‘very serious,’ and called for a thorough investigation to determine the cause, including potential negligence by management or regulatory bodies. The explosion, which occurred on Monday in the Pasamailaram Phase 1 area of Sangareddy district, also injured over a dozen workers. BRS leader K Kavitha visited injured victims in a Patancheru hospital on Tuesday and alleged government negligence, demanding substantial compensation for the affected families.
