A major fire accident occurred at the Singareni KTK-5 mine in Jayashankar Bhupalapalli district, causing heavy property damage. The fire broke out in the lamp room used by mine workers, destroying nearly 1,500 mining cap lamps. Although the incident resulted in significant losses to the Singareni organization, no casualties were reported.
According to preliminary information from officials, a short circuit at the battery charging points in the lamp room is believed to be the cause of the fire. Alert staff members quickly shifted petrol cans stored nearby, preventing a potential explosion and averting a major disaster. The value of the damaged lamps is estimated at around Rs 50 lakh. Authorities have ordered a detailed inquiry into the incident and assured strict action to prevent such accidents in the future.
