A tragic incident occurred in Una district of Himachal Pradesh when an oil tanker carrying diesel overturned and burst into flames. The accident, which occurred at Tahliwala Kaswa, resulted in the loss of one life and left several others injured.
The overturned tanker wreaked havoc in the area, causing significant destruction to vehicles, shops, and a residential property. The intense blaze engulfed nearby structures, compounding the damage and leaving a trail of devastation in its wake.
Preliminary reports suggest that the accident was triggered by a brake failure, leading to the tanker overturning in the market area. The subsequent ignition of the spilled diesel fuel exacerbated the situation, resulting in a massive fire outbreak.
Tragically, one individual lost their life in the accident, while several others sustained injuries. Among the casualties were individuals caught in the path of the flaming tanker, including occupants of vehicles and pedestrians in the vicinity.
Deputy Chief Minister Mukesh Agnihotri, who serves as the local MLA, expressed his condolences over the incident. He assured that the administration is actively involved in providing relief efforts to the affected individuals and families.
