Some nearby houses were also damaged, and there are unconfirmed reports of women and children among the casualties. Speaker KP Assembly Babar Swati taking to the X demanded “transparent and immediate investigation into the incident, identify those responsible, and not only provide immediate relief and compensation to the affected families but also take comprehensive measures for their rehabilitation”.
