This caused a chemical reaction that forced the pressure release valve to open and allowed the gas to leak. A committee of experts working on behalf of the Indian government conducted its own investigation and reached the same conclusion. See similar questions...

This is the worst type of leak because it runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and normally it is a "silent" leak. Unless it is an extremely bad leak you usually cannot hear it running. To determine if you have an overflow tube leak take the top off of your toilet tank and check the water level in the tank. See similar questions...
