A major fire mishap was averted by quick action of petrol bunk staff in Hyderabad's Ghatkesar.
A gas cylinder had exploded in an Omnivan travelling from Ghatkesar to Uppal, setting the moving van on
fire.
While the passengers jumped out and escaped safely, the van rolled into a nearby petrol station.
The fuel station employees reacted quickly and doused the fire using extinguishers in the bunk, preventing a major disaster.
