A young child dying in an accident on a construction site is indeed very tragic!!
What is equally disappointing is that in the article there is no mention of words like Creches, childcare arrangements, etc. The newspaper report only mentions that “there should be provision of rooms for workers under the Buildings and Other Construction Workers’ Act”.
People continue to be unaware about what Creches are? What are some of it’s key components? The need for creches? Etc. The general understanding of a Creche is limited to a woman sitting with a group of young children.
We wish the newspaper reporter highlighted the role of crèches a bit more. And hope for the media to pick up the issue of Creches and their need, to create mass awareness around the same.
Only then there will be social change possible!!
