Cause of Tragedy | Illegal Refilling Suspected
A gas cylinder explosion in the Dwarkapuri area caused chaos on Thursday afternoon, leaving three people severely injured, including the house owner's son, while a passerby sustained minor injuries.
The blast allegedly occurred around 12:30 pm during illegal refilling work of an LPG cylinder at a utensil shop, said the police. All victims were rushed to a nearby hospital, where they are undergoing treatment.
The house owner's son is said to be in critical condition, while the others are stable.
The explosion was so powerful that the partition wall between two shops collapsed, and debris scattered outside, injuring a passerby. Around 5-6 cylinders were recovered from the spot.
