IF it is proved that the blast had occurred due to the substandard quality of the said equipment, then you can move to consumer forum.
You can initiate consumer complaint only if there is any deficiency in service or unfair trade practice on part of the manufacturer of the said equipment.
If the reason for the blast is not because of the fault of that equipment or that equipment is out or its warranty period, then you cannot initiate a consumer complaint against the manufacturer.

Consumer Forum has no jurisdiction to try and decide such type of matters.The case can be only filed under the provisions of The Fatal Accident Act 1855 against State Electricity Board and Municipal corporation to recover damages.

It is a accident, not a consumer case.

Go for writ seeking compensation from the Govt.
