This is the shocking moment a parcel exploded during unloading from a rickshaw, leaving four workers injured in India.

The blast occurred while employees were offloading goods at Jai Balaji Transports in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, on Monday, March 3.

CCTV footage shows porters moving items from the vehicle. One labourer then lifted a large carton, which was dropped onto the ground before a massive explosion.

Reports revealed that the box contained firecrackers.

Four workers sustained injuries to their faces and legs and were immediately taken to Kakinada Government General Hospital (GGH).

The cause of the explosion is suspected to be friction, and authorities have launched an investigation after two more bags of crackers were discovered at the scene.
