A cement bag reportedly fell from an under-construction building in Indralok Phase 6 and landed on a vehicle parked below, raising concerns over safety measures at the construction site.
According to a reel by 'gems of mbmc', no one was injured in the incident. However, the episode has sparked concern among residents, as the falling material could have led to a serious mishap had a pedestrian, resident, or vehicle occupant been present at the spot at the time.
A video has surfaced showing the exterior of the under-construction building, where the incident allegedly took place. The visuals have once again brought construction-site safety into focus, particularly in areas where residential movement and vehicular parking are located close to ongoing building work.
Residents have questioned whether adequate precautions were being taken to prevent construction material from falling outside the site premises. They have also urged the authorities concerned to inspect the site and ensure that proper safety nets, barricading and other protective measures are in place.
While the incident did not result in any injuries, citizens said it should serve as a warning, as even a minor lapse at a construction site can have dangerous consequences in a densely populated residential area.
