Workplace safety at Shree
The company his family controls has faced scrutiny over deaths at its Kodla plant near Sedam in Karnataka's Kalaburagi district. Six workers died when a crane collapsed during construction in 2018, and four more died in separate incidents within two months in 2024, after which the district collector ordered an inquiry into safety practices 4. In February 2025, after another death, workers were filmed moving the man's body outside the premises, and six people were arrested 4. A detailed public statement from Shree Cement on these incidents was not found in the sources reviewed, and the events took place after Benu Gopal Bangur had stepped back from day-to-day management 34.
Later years
