Two-year-old dies after accidentally drinking turpentine A two-year-old boy died after accidentally consuming turpentine, mistaking it for drinking water, in a tragic incident reported from Bidgaon under the jurisdiction of Wathoda police station. The deceased, identified as Advik Shyam Bhadade, was playing at home when he wandered near a storeroom and encountered a bottle. Believing it contained water, he drank the liquid inside. His health deteriorated rapidly following ingestion, and he was rushed to the hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment. The incident occurred on Sunday evening, with the child’s condition worsening shortly after the accidental consumption. Wathoda police have registered a case of accidental death, and formal procedures are currently underway to document the incident. The police station has confirmed that the case is being investigated to determine the circumstances surrounding the tragedy. The family of the deceased has not yet issued any public statements, but the incident has sparked discussions about child safety and the importance of securing hazardous substances in households. Parents and caregivers are being urged to store chemicals and other potentially dangerous items out of reach of young children to prevent similar accidents. The tragedy highlights the critical need for vigilance in households with young children. Turpentine, a common solvent used in painting and industrial applications, is highly toxic and can cause severe health complications if ingested. Medical professionals emphasize that even small amounts can lead to poisoning, respiratory distress, and, in severe cases, death. Authorities have reiterated the importance of educating families about the risks associated with household chemicals.#child_safety #wathoda_police_station #bidgaon #advik_shyam_bhadade #turpentine
8 Bidgaon warehouses gutted, goods worth lakhs turned to ashes A major fire broke out in eight warehouses in Bidgaon, located under Bahadura nagar panchayat, on Monday morning, destroying goods worth lakhs of rupees. The blaze reportedly started around 9 a.m. in a foam warehouse and quickly spread to nearby scrap godowns. The situation worsened after nearly five gas cylinders exploded, causing the fire to grow significantly and become visible from a long distance. The incident occurred near Bhandewadi, where approximately 18 tin-shed warehouses owned by Tushar Sahu were rented out to various traders dealing in foam, scrap, aluminium, plywood, and other materials. Among the worst-affected businesses was Amit Ahluwalia’s Shree Ramdhara Comforts Products Pvt Ltd, where foam and related materials were completely gutted. Heavy losses were also reported at Rajesh Sahu’s Navdhara Industries/Rampal Steel Industries and Jayesh Sahu’s Santosh Steel Enterprises, where scrap, iron, steel materials, and office equipment were destroyed. Vijay Shahane’s Fensina Vintech Pvt Ltd warehouse suffered extensive damage, with compressor, routing, and cleaning machines burnt. A Tata Ace goods vehicle, a press machine, and other materials at Trivendra Raghuvanshi’s Asar Green Kabadi warehouse were also reduced to ashes, while two vacant godowns were damaged. Fire brigade teams from six stations of the Nagpur Municipal Corporation, along with fire tenders from Bahadura nagar panchayat and Mihan, arrived at the scene. After nearly four hours, the firefighters managed to bring the fire under control. No casualties were reported. The incident highlights the devastating impact of such disasters on local businesses and the challenges faced in containing large-scale fires in industrial areas.#bidgaon #bahadura_nagar_panchayat #tushar_sahu #amit_ahluwalia #shree_ramdhara_comforts_products_pvt_ltd
