With the state administration taking steps to curtail the coronavirus in the state, the LG Polymers Gas Leakage accident has become the major concern for the Andhra Pradesh government as the experts from the SISIR and NEEIR said that the impact of the Styrene Monomer gas leak would long last on the victims. However, the Industry Minister Goutham Reddy said on Tuesday that the government would pay special attention to the future health problems of the victims.
Goutham Reddy said that the government has already taken full responsibility for the health of the victims. He said that all the victims were brought under the purview of the government's YSR Aarogya Sri scheme. The Minister also asserted that the victims would be given free treatment for a lifetime, no matter what their illnesses. He said that the Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, who considers public welfare as the priority had ordered the removal of the styrene gas.
