A tanker carrying acid overturned near here today, disrupting the traffic on the Jhabua-Meghnagar state highway.
The Gujarat-registered tanker was heading for Jhabua when it overturned near Garia Nala, 12 km from here, Meghnagar police station in-charge J R Barde said.
The acid spilled out and gave off white fumes which engulfed the area, disrupting the traffic, he said.
Nobody was injured in the incident, but the tanker driver ran away from the spot after the mishap, he said.
Traffic has been stopped on both sides of the road and efforts are on to clear the highway, Barde added.
