The Telangana People's Joint Action Committee (TPJAC) has appealed to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to ensure payment of the pending Rs 58 lakh ex gratia to families of the Sigachi Industries blast victims.
Marking one year since the Sigachi Industries explosion, BRS leader T Harish Rao alleged that the Telangana government failed to fulfil its promise of Rs 1 crore compensation to victims' families and demanded immediate action to ensure justice and financial support.
The Telangana High Court criticised the State for the sluggish investigation into the Sigachi Industries explosion of June 30, 2025, which killed 54 people. Despite examining 237 witnesses, the police have yet to form an opinion on the offences or those responsible. The Court noted that regulatory officials and company employees had not been questioned.
