Mahendra Lohar a 48 year old man from Delhi is living in a tent with his family right now They are having a hard time because his young son Suraj Lohar died in November 2024 Suraj died because of an accident in a sewer and the family says nobody from the government has come to see them or done anything about what happened
This really shows how dangerous it is for people working in sewers in Delhi The government says they are trying to stop people from having to clean sewers by hand but Suraj’s death and no action from officials makes you wonder if those programs are working The family is upset and wants justice showing how little support there is for people who have accidents like this
It is sad that people are still dying in sewers even though the government says they are helping This shows that they are not doing enough to protect workers The fact that no one has visited the Lohar family makes it seem like the government doesn’t care They need to do a better job making sure workers are safe and stop the practice of cleaning sewers by hand This family’s situation is just one example of the dangerous jobs that many people do in the city
