Sir, as a nation, we are in the bad habit of cutting corners. Our casual chalta hai attitude often turns preventable risks into human tragedies. Disasters such as major fires are rarely the result of a single accident; they are usually the culmination of multiple failures—violations of safety norms, unauthorized constructions, blocked exits, faulty electrical wiring, inadequate inspections, and lax enforcement. As you rightly pointed out in your column, when rules are treated as obstacles rather than safeguards, every shortcut adds another layer of risk. The devastating fire in Malviya Nagar is a reminder that negligence accumulates over time. What may appear to be minor compromises in safety, compliance or oversight can cost lives. Such tragedies are not merely accidents; they are often the consequence of a culture that tolerates corner-cutting. Equally troubling is the silence that often follows such tragedies. There is seldom a serious reckoning with the administrative failures that allowed unsafe conditions to persist. In the absence of accountability, tragedies risk being reduced to statistics.
BJP. as a Party has a reputation to : coagulate the most unmacted colours and social antitheses. into a fabric that will somehow hold togeather -- the cost and result is not important - whatever it may be - the Fabric must hold togeather even it is non conducive and destructive
After all they have the means and the ways and cover their interest.
Why do we wait for an accident -- before thinking of ways to Prevent It.
Our problem is we have no system to hold anyone responsible / accountable - of who caused the calamity.
Wnen Iam in the chair - I the creation of various Public Sector Exams -- use my authority to
monetize my Authority.
And the commedy is I dont live to see the negligence of my default -- for by then some other
sucker is sitting on my chair and when the Calamity happens -I the cause is enjoying the holiday and the Poor Chap on my chair is being Roasted. - candle march , publcity etc
