The workers were cleaning a chemical tank at the food processing plant in Nallavari Cheruvu village of West Godavari district, about 140 km northeast of Amaravathi, the main city of Andhra Pradesh.
"Today five workers were killed inside an aqua food processing factory here after inhaling poisonous gas. Three people died on the spot, while as the other two succumbed in the hospital," a police official posted in West Godavari told Xinhua.
"The incident occurred when the workers entered into a tank in the plant to clean it," he added.
