Sahnewal SHO Inderjit Singh said, “A woman had complained of breathing problems at around 6.30 am. It is being said that some kind of gas leaked there. It is difficult to say anything at this moment as officials are verifying the facts.”

An NDRF team was called up from Ladhowal for measurement of the sewer gas level.
