Over 40 LPG cylinders exploded after a chemical tanker hit a parked truck on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, killing one and injuring another.

Massive blaze on Jaipur-Ajmer highway as over 40 gas cylinders explode after road crash

Over 40 LPG cylinders exploded after a chemical tanker hit a parked truck on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, killing one and injuring another.

Over 40 LPG cylinders exploded one after another on the busy Jaipur-Ajmer highway on Tuesday night after a chemical-laden tanker rammed into a parked truck carrying them, triggering panic in the area.
Officials said on Wednesday that the tanker driver was burnt alive in the incident and one man was injured.
The explosions and flames were visible and audible from several kilometers away and scrap of the exploded cylinders were found metres away.
Jaipur Collector Dr Jitendra Soni said that a team of Hindustan Petroleum removed all the cylinders while following safety protocol and mechanism.
"Scrap of 42 cylinders was found around the area. They were all exploded cylinders. A total of 120 cylinders were safe. All of them were removed by the team of Hindustan Petroleum that followed all safety measures and protocols to sanitise the area," he told PTI.
The truck transporting the cylinders was parked outside a roadside hotel and its driver had stepped out for a meal when the tanker hit the truck. The cabin of the tanker caught fire and the cylinders spilled out of the truck.
Moments later, the cylinders started exploding and the scrap of some exploded cylinders were found several metres away.
The incident triggered panic in the area and policemen from several police stations were rushed to the spot. The traffic on the highway was immediately stopped and the fire was controlled.
Deputy CM Prem Chand Bairwa was at the spot to take stock of the situation.
"The tanker driver was burnt alive in the incident. Another man is injured," Deepak Khandelwal, Deputy Superintendent of Police, Dudu, said.
He said the traffic was later resumed on the highway.
Eyewitnesses claimed that a Regional Transport Office squad was stopping vehicles for checking on the highway and to avoid them, the tanker driver changed his lane suddenly and lost control, leading to the collision.
The district collector said the reason for the collision was being investigated.
In December last year, an LPG tanker collided with a truck near Bhankrota in Jaipur on the same highway, sparking a massive fireball that turned a stretch of the highway into an inferno, killing 19 people.&nbsp;

The driver of an LPG tanker involved in last week's explosion in Rajasthan, which claimed 13 lives, has appeared before the police. The driver, Jaiveer, will be questioned by the Special Investigation Team (SIT), which is investigating the incident.

Driver to be questioned by SIT after deadly LPG tanker explosion

The container truck collided with the tanker while taking a U-turn on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, breaking its outlet nozzles which released a white cloud of gas.

The driver of an LPG tanker that was involved in an explosion in Jaipur last week which claimed 13 lives has appeared before police and will be questioned by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the case, a senior official said on Tuesday.
The driver, Jaiveer (40), a resident of Mathura in Uttar Pradesh, managed to get out of the tanker in time after sensing the impact of the collision, which broke the tanker's outlet nozzles.
According to police, Jaiveer called Delhi-based tanker owner Anil Panwar after the incident and then switched off his phone.
"We cannot blame the tanker driver immediately as the container truck driver had hit his vehicle. He saw that the tanker's nozzles had broken and realised that there could be an explosion as other drivers were turning on the ignition of their vehicles. So, he fled to save his life," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Amit Kumar.
An FIR was registered in the matter on December 20, the day the explosion took place, and now the tanker driver is being questioned. The driver of the container truck which rammed into the tanker died in the explosion, he said.
Jaiveer appeared before police on Monday. The SIT probing the case will question Jaiveer, Panwar and the tanker company about the vehicle's condition and the driver's employment history, he added.
The DCP said Jaiveer was among the nine drivers present at the accident scene who managed to escape.
The container truck collided with the tanker while taking a U-turn on the Jaipur-Ajmer highway, breaking its outlet nozzles which released a white cloud of gas.
Within minutes, the gas ignited and a massive ball of fire engulfed over 30 vehicles stuck in the jam.
More than two dozen people were injured in the accident and 23 are undergoing treatment at Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital.
Police have registered a case under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), including rash and negligent driving, causing death by negligent act, and causing hurt by endangering life.
The Rajasthan High Court has taken suo motu cognisance of the matter and sought replies from the state government and the Centre. It will hear the matter on January 10, 2025.
