The report indicated that the victim workers collapsed after inhaling the poisonous gas, suspected to have been released during the waste treatment process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Commission noted that if the contents of the media report were true, it raised serious issues of violation of the human rights of the victims. Consequently, it issued notices to the Chief Secretary, Government of Andhra Pradesh, and the Superintendent of Police, Anakapalli, requesting a detailed report on the matter within two weeks. The report is expected to cover the status of the health of the injured, who was reportedly undergoing treatment at a hospital, and compensation, if any, provided to him and the next of kin of the
