It is worth mentioning that many such incidents have taken place across Balochistan every day.
Causalities on account of road accidents, gas leakage, and trains accident occur rather too frequently in the remote and desolate places of Balochistan.
Unfortunately, rescue services in cases of emergency are difficult to carry out because of the long distant areas and poor roads infrastructure.
In such circumstances, the people are advised to take precautionary measures by themselves to avoid any untoward situations.
The gas-leakage either leads to suffocation or its ends up causing blasts in houses.
The rescue departments ask people to take extreme care and switch off the gas connections before they go to bed.
Similarly, the people are advised to be cautious while crossing railway lines.
The officials advise the people to use railway crossing for such movements to avoid any unwanted incidents.
