In the aftermath of a tragic accident in Kalapahar, Guwahati, where a five-year-old boy died after falling into an open under-construction drain, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has directed the chief secretary to use satellite imagery to identify all open drains across the city. The move comes amid rising concerns over public safety and reports of missing manhole covers. On the same day, another mishap in Kahilipara left an elderly man severely injured after a fall into a partially built roadside drain. The Chief Minister stressed stricter monitoring of construction sites and preventive measures to avoid a repeat of such tragedies.
