Acid spills from overturned tanker
Jhabua, MP, Aug 14 (UNI) Panic prevailed after an acid-laden tanker overturned this afternoon on the Indore-Ahmedabad road near this district's Masuria village 10 km from here, police said.
Providentially, no casualties were reported. The vehicle was rammed by another tanker from the rear, overturned and its valve opened leading to acid flow.
''Though both tankers were carrying acid, the leakage occurred only in one vehicle. As a precautionary measure, two dozen families were evacuated from the area,'' said Collector Raj Kumar Pathak.
Acid was being safely pumped out of the tanker when reports last came in.
