Investigation Launched into Unexpected Mine Flood in Siduli

The sudden water surge in the Siduli coal mine has prompted a formal inquiry by state authorities and the management of Eastern Coalfields Limited. Investigators are examining whether the flood is linked to geological faults, illegal water extraction, or other operational lapses. Residents near the mine reported tremors and loud noises, raising concerns about the stability of surrounding structures. The probe will determine the root cause before any further mining activities resume.
