The blast was so powerful that it blew off the garage&#8217;s roof and sent debris flying into the nearby streets. One worker lost his life instantly in the tragic accident. The local police have cordoned off the area and are currently investigating the cause of the explosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to preliminary reports, the incident occurred while routine welding work was being carried out at the workshop. Local witnesses described a deafening sound followed by a thick cloud of black smoke engulfing the neighborhood. It is suspected that a leak in a gas cylinder or a carbide tank triggered the ignition, leading to the catastrophic failure. The force of the blast was so immense that nearby structures felt tremors, sparking panic among the residents of this densely populated zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Budge Budge Police and a fire tender arrived at the spot shortly after the blast. Firefighters managed to extinguish the secondary fires within an hour. The body of the deceased worker, which was severely mutilated due to the impact, has been sent for a post-mortem examination. Authorities are now scrutinizing the garage\u2019s safety certifications and whether it adhered to the mandatory fire safety protocols. Forensic experts are expected to visit the site to determine the exact nature of the explosive materials involved. The incident has cast a shadow of grief over the locality, raising concerns about safety standards in small-scale industrial units.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A typical Thursday morning turned into a nightmare for the residents of Budge Budge in South 24 Parganas as a high-intensity explosion ripped through a local welding garage.
