    Avinash was working as an assistant electrician...and dies by electrocution. A very sad case. All that I can think of is the Indian habit of 'learn while doing' rather than go through some proper training. Many people I know go about handling and fixing electric cabling and machinery. They are not willing to undertake a little training course. Despite the many taunts from others I avoid handling anything electric.
