A major fire broke out at a gas pipeline in the Coke Oven Battery Complex No.11 during the regular maintenance exercise. The deceased include both regular and contractual employees.
Bhilai Steel Plant is being rated as the best among those under the control of the Steel Authority of India (SAIL).

Two Senior Officials and 6 Workers died in June 2014 due to the leakage of Carbon Monoxide.
Soon after knowing about the tragedy, SAIL Chairman Anil Kumar Chaudhury and Union Steel Secretary Binoy Kumar had rushed to Bhilai in Durg District, Chhattisgarh.
