On this Special Report, India Today’s Piyush Mishra reports from Indore’s Bhagirathpura, where a severe water contamination crisis has claimed at least nine lives. Residents allege that ‘sewer line and drinking water pipes that run side by side’ caused the tragedy, a claim backed by lab tests confirming contamination. The programme highlights the irony of the ‘cleanest city’ in India facing such a public health disaster, with locals accusing the administration of waking up only after deaths occurred. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken cognizance, and the opposition has launched a scathing attack on the BJP government.
Indore Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava on Friday said he has been informed of 10 deaths linked to the outbreak, though the health department has officially confirmed only four deaths so far. Residents, meanwhile, claim that 14 people, including a six-month-old infant, have died due to the crisis.
