At least 21 workmen received burns in an accident in one of the nine units of the 4,600-MW thermal power plant of Adani Power Ltd at Mundra in Kutch district on Wednesday.
Eight of the workers with “nominal injuries” were provided first-aid while the remaining 13, who suffered various levels of injuries, were shifted to Ahmedabad and were being provided “high quality” medical care at super-specialty hospitals, a company spokesman said here.
