⚡ “Government’s Shocking Negligence: Why indian Electricians Risk Their Lives Every Day” ⚡
Across India, government-employed electricians are seen working in dangerous conditions—climbing poles barefoot, repairing live wires without helmets, gloves, or harnesses. This isn’t bravery. This is criminal negligence by a system that refuses to protect its own workers.
1. Safety Gear Is a Luxury, Not a Right
From insulated gloves to helmets and proper harnesses, basic safety equipment is missing. workers are left to fend for themselves against live electricity.
2. Human Lives Are Treated as Disposable
An electric shock at such high voltages means instant death. Yet, year after year, linemen and electricians die while the government shrugs it off as “part of the job.”
3. Training? Almost Non-Existent
Most electricians are thrown into high-risk jobs without proper safety drills or emergency training. This is like sending soldiers to war without weapons.
4. Accountability Missing at Every Level
Every accident should raise questions—who is responsible for worker safety? But instead of accountability, we get silence, compensation promises, or blame-shifting.
5. A Symptom of Larger Governance Failure
If the government cannot ensure helmets and gloves for its own workers, what does it say about how much it values human life? The lives of poor workers are being traded for cost-cutting.
🚨 Bottom Line:
Electricians don’t need hero tags—they need safety, dignity, and accountability. Every death on the line is not an accident—it is government-sponsored murder by negligence.
