The Telangana People's Joint Action Committee (TPJAC), which has been supporting Sigachi blast victims for the past year, said it has pursued compensation, legal action and rehabilitation efforts. It will hold a round-table meeting on June 30 to press for justice.
A year after the Sigachi Industries blast claimed 54 lives, victims' families allege that compensation, medical assistance, educational support and employment assurances announced by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and the company remain largely unfulfilled despite repeated representations to authorities.
The kin of eight workers missing after the Sigachi blast have alleged discrimination in the release of ex-gratia and demanded payment of the remaining Rs 75 lakh. They met the Sangareddy Collector seeking intervention over delays linked to death certificates.
