Death of 2 structure workers inward quick succession has caused a lot of charges in addition to explanations. First, a study was created past times a campus grouping called "Hamara Manch." The Dean of Resource Generation in addition to Planning, Prof. Manindra Agarwal, gave a rebuttal of the charges inward the report. Then an alumni grouping called "IIT Kanpur Citizens Forum" refuted several statements made past times Dean. Here are the links for the websites of IITK Citizens Forum in addition to the response past times IIT Kanpur.
What practice I intend of the issue. Well, I believe that IIT Kanpur direction conduct keep no intentions of pain anyone. They conduct keep no intentions of saving money. They would similar to come across that contractors follow all laws of the land, in addition to if at that spot is whatever toll associated amongst obligations nether whatever law, IIT Kanpur would hold upwards happy to pay for it.
However, ensuring security in addition to welfare of structure workers postulate to a greater extent than than willingness to pass money. It requires supervision of contractors, in addition to essentially forcing them to deport out all the obligations (for which costs are built inward to the contract amount). And that is where, something goes wrong. There are lapses inward price of non forcing the contractor to practice everything that they are supposed to do.
In such a situation, what should hold upwards the business office of alumni, if any. Is Citizens Forum playing that business office effectively. In my experience, if yous but promise that an accident on campus volition forcefulness the direction to drib dead to a greater extent than pro-active inward price of providing a safer run environs for structure workers, yous are going to hold upwards disappointed. So a pressure level from community is important. All the gains that nosotros conduct keep made inward the final 10-15 years over the number of ensuring minimum reward to contract workers conduct keep been primarily due to community pressure level (both internal in addition to alumni).
But I uncovering Citizens Forum to hold upwards besides harsh. It is unfortunate that alumni conduct keep to purpose such linguistic communication for their alma mater.
On the other hand, IIT Kanpur also has to come upwards out of its belief that they are the best (even if imperfect). They may hold upwards the improve than most, fifty-fifty all, authorities organizations. But, many individual organizations conduct keep drib dead much to a greater extent than witting of the security requirement. And why not. Safety does non toll much money. It actually has to practice amongst mindset. And every accident dents your image. So, why non but practice what it takes to practice a safer environment. And, frankly, I conduct keep personally seen safer environments exterior IIT Kanpur.
At the end, I promise nosotros volition instantly hold upwards providing a much safer environs to our structure workers.
