VISAKHAPATNAM: More than 10 people affected by styrene gas leakage from the LG Polymers in Visakhapatnam got discharged from King George Hospital (KGH) and other private hospitals on Sunday.
On Thursday’s gas leak at the LG Polymers plant, 12 people died and over 400 fell ill and the affected were admitted to KGH and other private hospitals in Visakhapatnam.
The affected complained of dizziness, eye irritation, nausea and breathlessness.
On Sunday, 10 injured persons got discharged from KGH while some other affected including policemen were discharged from the private hospitals.
KGH Superintendent Dr Arjuna said all the patients in KGH are now stable and do not have any major health issues.
“Initially, about three children were having issues related to vision and one of them was having severe eye irritation. However, all of them are stable now and are under observation,” added Dr Arjuna.
“A six-year-old boy, Manideep, who was suffering from severe eye irritation was sent to LV Prasad eye hospital for second opinion after his recovery at KGH. After a consultation at the eye hospital, he was sent home as his vision is clear,” Dr Arjuna said.
“The effect of the gas was different on different people. Especially in children, they have different immunity levels from others. In his case the gas affected his eye majorly than other body parts,” added Dr Arjuna.

Off-Screen Buzz, On-Screen Failure for Tarun Bhascker–Eesha Rebba
There have been persistent rumours about Tarun Bhascker and Eesha Rebba being in a serious relationship, with reports of the two dating doing the rounds since last year. Their off-screen chemistry and vibe generated considerable buzz and were widely discussed, creating expectations around their on-screen pairing.
However, that curiosity failed to translate into box-office success. Their first film together, Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi, which released last weekend, turned out to be a complete washout. More than just a flop, the film was a non-starter, failing to register any significant opening collections and remaining dull throughout the weekend.
The hype surrounding their alleged personal relationship clearly did not convert into ticket sales. While audiences may have been interested in gossip about the duo, there was little enthusiasm to watch them together on screen.
As a result, Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi has ended up being one of the most notable recent failures at the box office.
