The incident has left approximately 35 people injured, among whom three are police officers and two firefighters who were caught in the blaze while trying to carry out rescue operations. The fire escalated quickly, resulting in chaos within the factory premises and affecting bystanders in the vicinity as well.

Despite the initial chaos, the fire was eventually brought under control after extensive efforts by the firefighting teams. In the aftermath, victims were promptly transported to local hospitals, including Civil Hospital and Fortis Hospital, with medical teams closely monitoring their conditions.

The intensity of the explosion was so severe that it destroyed 8 to 10 vehicles parked outside the factory.
