One reads of road accidents, train mishaps and plane crashes. One never knows when one will die. It seems, in our country, death is round the corner. Floods, landslides, sun-kissed deaths, murders, suicides, frost-bites one hears of......
The latest accidental death springing to news is that of a young woman falling to meet her nemesis after attempting a ride on a Tora Tora in an amusement park. The lady, in question had sought some fun but ended up losing her life. This matter again, brings up the perennial argument of the lack of precautionary measures in the mechanical devices in our country. Be it the Giant Wheel, the Tora Tora or the roller-coaster. The rides are exciting, adventorous and dangerous. But they are fun. And, that's the reason people go for them. But, then if the personnel manning these mechanical agents are careless, then one's life is at risk.
In the recent case, the man in charge of the Tora Tora was arrested. But, then again it is an instance of belated action. If the rotating device had been in perfect form, the woman's life could have been saved. In all innocence the lady sought some amusement for her kid and the child is motherless now. An orphan in infancy itself.
