At least three people, including an elderly woman and a minor, were killed when an illegal petrol tank exploded in a village in this Maharashtra district, police said Sunday.
A 12-year-old girl was critically injured in the incident. The mishap took place in Kokarwadi village, 120-km from here Saturday evening, said investigating officer S.M. Raut.
Since there were no petrol stations for hundreds of miles nearby, a motorcyclist went to the Kadam family, known to store petrol in a mini tank in their home.
