Meanwhile, Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan also expressed his condolences to the victims.

“The sad news of the untimely demise of many precious lives was received in the accident due to a short circuit in Swarn Bagh Colony of Indore. I pray to God to give place to the departed souls at his feet and give strength to the family members to bear this deep sorrow and to give speedy recovery to the injured,” he wrote on Twitter this morning.
