|December 08, 2025
THE Dhanbad administration has intensified its efforts to relocate 10,000 families from Kenduadih after a toxic gas leak left two women dead and several others ill on Wednesday.
According to Dhanbad Deputy Commissioner Aditya Ranjan, the affected families are reluctant to shift. On Saturday, several of them were taken to the proposed site in Belgadia, but they were reluctant citing trivial issues.
The gas leak was first reported in Rajput Basti, where two women died and over two dozen-mostly women and children-were admitted to BCCL's Kustore Regional Hospital and Central Hospital, Dhanbad.
