India News LIVE Updates, 30 June 2026: Bengal Refinery Fire Injures

India News LIVE Updates highlight several major developments on 30 June 2026. A fire broke out at a naphtha pipeline connected to the Haldia refinery in West Bengal’s Purba Medinipur district. The accident injured 15 people and triggered a large emergency response. Firefighters controlled the blaze, while medical teams shifted the injured to nearby hospitals. Officials have started an investigation to determine the cause of the incident.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Cabinet approved the Delhi EV Policy 2026. The new policy does not offer tax benefits for strong hybrid vehicles. Instead, it focuses completely on electric vehicles. The government also announced a ban on new petrol-powered two-wheelers from April 2028. Officials expect the policy to increase electric vehicle adoption before it expires in March 2030.

The Delhi EV Policy aims to electrify at least 30 percent of the city’s vehicles. Two-wheelers make up nearly two-thirds of Delhi’s vehicle population. Therefore, the government believes this move will reduce pollution and improve air quality. The policy also supports charging infrastructure and encourages cleaner transport across the national capital.

In another important update, reports suggest that some India-bound commercial ships are switching off public tracking signals while crossing the Strait of Hormuz. Shipping companies are taking extra precautions because of regional security concerns. Authorities continue to monitor maritime traffic closely. However, officials have not reported any disruption to India’s trade or energy supplies.

India News LIVE Updates continue to reflect important developments across the country. The Haldia refinery fire remains under investigation, while Delhi’s EV Policy marks a major shift toward clean transportation. At the same time, shipping companies remain alert in sensitive international waters. More official updates are expected throughout the day as authorities release fresh information.
