Assam witnesses blowout at ONGC well

Emergency teams are working to stop the leak, with senior officials on site and a "well-killing" operation underway. Some locals in the nearby areas have decided to leave their homes temporarily as a precaution. The well wasn't producing oil or gas when things went wrong.

This brings back memories of the 2020 Baghjan blowout—which dragged on for months and hit local communities hard. Quick action this time is a reminder of how important it is to handle these situations fast, so things don't get out of hand again.
