About 60 people have been hospitalised after an ammonia leak from a pipeline belonging to India’s Coromandel International (CORF.NS) near its Ennore plant in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Reuters reported.
The people were hospitalised after they had difficulty in breathing and a burning sensation in the eyes, and 52 people are still under observation, the government said in a statement.
In another incident, at least 13 people were killed with 14 others injured in a head-on collision between a bus and a dumper in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, police said Thursday.
