Which of the following accidents attracts the requirement of notice under Section 8 of the Explosives Act, 1884?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 8 covers explosion or fire accidents attended by death or serious personal or property injury, and those "of a description usually attended" by such consequences. Actual injury is therefore not indispensable where the accident is of that usual dangerous description; a minor incident outside both categories does not meet the stated trigger.
