Ludhiana: 22-year-old welder dies after falling into acid tank at factory

Hindustan Times  

A 22-year-old welder was killed after he fell into an acid tank at a zinc factory in Focal Point, Phase 4, officials said, adding that another worker was injured in the fall caused by a shed collapse. According to the officials, the factory owner rushed the injured worker to a hospital, allegedly leaving the deceased behind without informing anyone or raising an alarm. While the factory worker fell at a distance, Sameer plunged into a four-foot-deep acid tank used for industrial processing. Accusing the factory owner of criminal negligence, Mukim said timely medical intervention could have saved Sameer’s life.
