A news report says that a daily wager of Power Development Department (PDD) was electrocuted to death while repairing a high tension wire at Gabra village of Karnah in Kupwara district, on Sunday.
This is not for the first time that a daily wager died due to electrocution while on duty. Such mishaps keep on happening and the daily wagers become the victims, losing their lives.
Why do many mishaps occur and why is not a check on the re-occurance of such accidents? Are not the lives of these daily wagers precious? Why some others in the PDD become careless and negligent, resulting in such mishaps? There should be an end to these mishaps and deaths.
