The death comes days after a 25-year-old man was killed after falling into a deep pit while riding a motorcycle in west Delhi’s Janakpuri, once again raising questions over uncovered drains, open pits and accountability in public spaces across the city.
A 32-year-old labourer died after falling into an open manhole on vacant Delhi Development Authority (DDA) land in Rohini, marking the second such fatal incident in the capital within five days. According to the Delhi Police, a PCR call was received at 2.36 pm on Tuesday, reporting a missing person suspected to have fallen into a sewer. Police teams rushed to the spot following the call.
The caller, Amir Hussain, a resident of Bihar’s Darbhanga district, told the police that his friends — Birju Kumar Rai (32) of Samastipur and Budhan Das alias Suraj (33) of Madhubani, both labourers — had consumed alcohol on Monday night. At around 7.30 pm, while the two were returning to their nearby jhuggi, Birju allegedly lost balance and fell into the open manhole.
Police said Budhan Das did not inform anyone immediately as he was drunk and only alerted Amir Hussain after regaining his senses the next afternoon, following which the PCR call was made.
After receiving the information, the police informed the DDA, Fire Brigade and other concerned agencies, and rescue operations were launched. The victim was pulled out of the manhole with the help of the Fire Brigade and taken to hospital, where he was declared dead.
