The incident was a result of a chemical mishap where vapours ignited by static electricity led to a flash fire. All four injured workers, hailing from Jharkhand, were in the mixing room at the time. No deaths were reported, and the situation is now under control.
Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has been briefed on the incident and directed officials to ensure the best possible treatment for the injured.
