Tragedy in Indore - 7 Deaths. An electric vehicle that was being charged exploded - igniting 10 LPG cylinders stored in the house. The residents could not be rescued because the electronic locks jammed due to the power failure.

@DocRGM @grok, give full details of this incident? Why does this happen?

@DocRGM @grok which brand of ev was being charged as per news sources

@DocRGM Which electric vehicle caught fire?

@DocRGM @Broufus What were they doing with 10 LPG cylinders ?

@DocRGM @grok can you give statistics about the EV incidents happening yearly ?

Truly heartbreaking 💔 This isn’t just about EVs or LPG alone - it’s a chain of failures: unsafe storage, lack of basic safeguards, and overdependence on electronic systems without manual overrides. Technology should add safety, not become a trap in emergencies. We need stricter enforcement, better awareness, and fail-safe systems - not blame shifting.

@DocRGM 10 cylinders? Why do they need so many cylinders for domestic use?

@DocRGM My question ..why does the house have 10 cylinders ?? Hoarders got what they deserved..

@DocRGM Unfortunate news. Keeping 10 highly inflammable gas cylinders inside the house was a very bad idea. Always model the worst case before taking such decisions.

@DocRGM This is a heartbreaking wake-up call. We need urgent safety audits on where LPG cylinders are stored in residential areas, and mandatory manual overrides on electronic locks. 7 lives lost because of a power failure is unacceptable.

@DocRGM Electronic locks can fail in fires. In this tragedy, heat trapped people inside before LPG cylinders exploded. Always keep a physical key handy.

@DocRGM Final Destination movie writers should just read India news

@DocRGM TRAGIC. "the electronic locks jammed due to the power failure". Is it unforeseeable ? These locks are meant to prevent invasion and theft, Why should exit from inside be blocked at any time unless specifically programmed for a contingency????

@DocRGM 10 LPG cylinders stored near heavy electrical equipment? You prepare for one thing, and something else that needed your timely attention takes your life. Quite tragic! Om Shanti 🙏

@DocRGM Hoarding 10 LPG cylinders so that 9 other families can starve in a time of crisis? Yeah no empathy for such people. Karma!

@DocRGM EV is killer machine. Like ticking bomb Due to these safety issues, I never ever think of buying any EV. imagine if u parked EV two wheeler or car in ur basement next to other vehicles (especially big apartments), if EV catches fire. All things gone in minutes. This is sad

@DocRGM Poeple dont have lpg and are lining up for days.. and these guys had 10 cylinders .

@DocRGM This is very painful incident..May lord give peace to departed souls.🙏🙏🙏

@DocRGM Me trying to feel bad for hoarders. Challenge impossible.

Sad news indeed. Fire safety in multi level home clearly failed in today’s EV 🚗 era. Another example of lack of fire extinguishing equipment in modern living so critical to guard human lives and safety. Jamming of electronic locks during fire is a classic example of bad science and technology.

@DocRGM So heart breaking 💔,om shanti 🙏

@DocRGM Unfortunate sum of chain of events 10 LPG+ ev battery explosion+electronic lock I think 10 LPG seems to be the major culprit closely followed by a defective charging system Precautions are necessary for EV charging - away or confined place with no inflammable material near

@DocRGM Why is there 10 cylinders in one apartment?

@DocRGM Bad karma of hoarding 10 cylinders as well...rip for the innocent...karma for the hoarder in the family

@DocRGM We don't need someone to bomb us to reduce the population count. Thank you @BJP4India MP govt for the stellar performance.

@DocRGM I dont see 10 cylinders bursting and house on fire footage, seems like a Fake or Eaggerated new or info…

@DocRGM Sorry for those deaths but 10 lpg cylinder in a house at the time of lpg scarcity????

@DocRGM Which electric vehicle was this?

@DocRGM Who supplied 10 cylinders? Refill needs a gap of 25 days for domestic use!

@DocRGM 1. Electronic system to lock their homes. 2. 10 cylinders stored. Disaster recipe right there. Have a physical key system as a fallback in case of electronic failures. And don't hoard gas cylinders.

@DocRGM Wrong - Please see below

@DocRGM Whose house is this? 10 LPG cyclinders? Are they politically connected for all wrong reasons? If yes, no sympathy

@DocRGM So many questions, time to rethink fire safety in our homes, was balcony caged? Preventing escape through balcony? This highlights risk of electronic locks? And why store so many gas cylinders at home?

@DocRGM should have some space at home, where in case of fire, the smoke does not enter. Eariler homes had some open space in middle.

@DocRGM How did it catch fire? Also cars should be designed to open physically. Latest model cars don't have this facility. China faced this problem and now rectified to include manual for EVs too.

@DocRGM Why did they have 7+ cylinders at their home when whole country is struggling with gas problem.
