Two workers in a rosin factory at Kosri village were reportedly burnt alive on Tuesday in a major blaze under the Nalagarh sub-division of Solan district.
According to a report, “Charred bodies of two workers from Uttar Pradesh were recovered from a rosin factory in the afternoon and have been identified as Arjun Kumar (50) and Shiv Dayal (24), who were sleeping inside the factory.”
