News India Live, Digital Desk: An incident has come to light from Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, which has shaken the soul. In a residential area of ​​Ranchi, a 2-year-old child went out of the house while playing and fell into a nearby open sewage drain. By the time the family members could find him and take him out of the drain, it was too late.

Blossoming childhood and then mourning
At this time, cold and deep silence has spread in the courtyard of the family where till yesterday the sound of small footsteps could be heard. Local people say that they had warned the administration several times about these open drains. Sewage pipelines and drains have been built, but lids have not been installed on them or they are broken. This ‘open death’ became death for that innocent person.

Who is responsible after all?
The question arises on the Municipal Corporation and administration. Every time such an incident occurs, an inquiry is ordered, compensation is announced and the files get heated for a few days. But after some time everything cools down again. Is the value of an innocent life just to be recorded in the government papers? In the race to make Ranchi smart, are we not able to ensure even basic security for our children?

The people of the city are angry
After this incident, immense sorrow and anger is being seen in the area. People are asking whether the children of officers’ families also walk on these unsafe roads? Be it monsoon or a normal day, open drains can prove fatal for any pedestrian. Today that innocent person has lost his life, tomorrow this accident can happen to anyone.

Caution the only option?
At present the situation is such that the public has to protect itself and its children. The possibility of these dangers increases even more during the rainy season. Be it the Forest Department or the Municipal Corporation, this negligence could have been avoided if lids had been installed on those gutters in time.

Our condolences:
We can only pray for that innocent child of Hilsa and his family, but the question remains the same – who will be next? Will the administration still take any concrete steps or will we wait for another innocent person to fall into this pit?

What would you say about this negligence? Shouldn’t the Ranchi administration face strict legal action? Please share your opinion with us.
