    In india safety standard very low. There are no municipality defined inspection or SOP prior to start up of shop or progressive periodical inspection .

    Sad Incident. May his soul rest in Peace. I doubt no ELCB/RCB installed in the supply circuit. MESCOM should make mandatory to install the safety gadgets along with good Earthing system & inspect these safety installation. Definitely it will save the human life

    Very sad and unfortunate incident. "Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon. To Allah we belong to Him shall we return." Regular maintenance of electrical devices could have avoided such accidents. By the way death need no such excuses. It comes at it's precise time in various form. Well regarding the shop name, shop owner and employees. It's good to see that there was unity in atleast business here. A shop belong to Hindu and it's employees are Muslims. When others are busy dividing the community by boycotting or banning Muslims from doing business etc. Here it was a different case. People especially trouble mongers should not forget that no matter what enemity one carries, but when it comes to earnings and business one has to depend on each other, else it will be impossible to survive on earth for a long time.

    Religion is a big joke .. It is against humanity .. We only see war and division amongst people ..High time humans shun superficial religions . There was more peace when humans where uneducated and were nomads ..They killed animals for survival ,and killed or attacked other humans only when they were threatened by the other. Egoistic humans have misunderstood religion.
