Rescue operations were still underway. Police officials informed that more than seven houses in the vicinity have been badly damaged.
An official involved in the rescue operations said as the lane where the incident took place was narrow, JCB machines and ambulances were finding it difficult to reach the spot.
District authorities said they were yet to ascertain the reason behind the explosion but fear that a stockpile of crackers could have triggered it.
In this area many illegal cracker manufacturing units operate and godowns are located.
