Village head Ranveer Kumar said many from the village had left for Delhi, where the victims are being treated.

Village's head Ranveer Kumar said many from the village had left for Delhi, where the victims are being treated. "Some of them would be returning with the dead soon. No one has cooked food in their homes," he added. Twenty-four-year-old Ramu Kumar, who had recently joined the factory to earn more before the birth of his first child, was among those who died in the incident. His seven-month-pregnant wife locked herself inside her house after hearing the tragic news.
