On Saturday, two police officers were suspended for being careless. This happened after a gas cylinder explosion at an illegal gas filling site in Shahpur Bhamaroli village, near the Dubagga police station, on Friday. The explosion hurt six people badly, including four workers inside the house and two children nearby. They are all in serious condition.
Omveer Singh, the Deputy Commissioner of Police for the West area, took action after learning that officers Ramsevak Rana and Manoj Kumar did not stop the illegal activity. “I visited the site and found out from local residents that this illegal gas filling has been going on for 5 to 6 months,” said Singh.
The blast took place around 7:00 PM at the home of Rohit Gupta, where residents revealed he had been secretly refilling gas cylinders. Singh is looking into the case with the help of the Assistant Commissioner of Police from Malihabad and has promised strict actions against any other officers involved.
