2017 Boiler explosion

Шаблон:Main A massive explosion ripped a boiler at National Thermal Power Limited (NTPC) Unchahar plant in Uttar Pradesh’s Rae Bareli district on Wednesday, 1 November 2017, killing at least 25 people and injuring nearly 100. The casualties have risen to 32 by Friday. Doctors warned the toll was likely to rise as more than a dozen contractual laborers were battling for life with more than 90 percent burn wounds.[5]

In what is one of the worst industrial disasters in eight years (after Jaipur's Indian Oil fire in 2009), local emergency response was overwhelmed with the scale of disaster. Help was sought from neighboring town and cities including Lucknow and Allahabad. Almost all the injured have been transferred to hospitals in state capital, Lucknow for better treatment.[6]
