Assam gas leak: PM Modi reviews situation, assures support
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday announced that the Centre was “fully committed to providing support and relief and rehabilitation to the affected families” of the Baghjan fire tragedy of Assam.
PM Modi’s statement came after he chaired a video conference meeting of the National Disaster Management Authority earlier on Thursday to review the situation in Upper Assam’s Baghjan gas well, which caught fire on June 9. Two firefighters had died in the inferno.
“Reviewed the situation in the wake of the Baghjan fire tragedy in Assam. Centre and state government are working to ensure proper relief and rehabilitation to those affected” tweeted PM Modi on Thursday night.
