    RIP, safety taken for granted in our country. Human life has become so cheap, its value is only realized during election.

    Very sad incident, the poor bread earning member is gone, govt will come up with compensation, same thing will happen again somewhere else. Builder, Municipality officials, others involved in safety all say its a tragic accident. Every thing is normal they think, only abnormal thing is the pain the family bears who have lost their dear ones. May God give them strength to bear it.

    It is very much hurting to hear the news of this type. In our country, safety is given least importance. Beware, a moment of carelessness may mean a life time of regret.

    Jo suraksha se dosti todega
    wo ek din duniya bi chodega
    Kaam me aur kaam ke baad
    sada suraksha rahe aap ke saat.
