Dharamsala, April 30

A contractor allegedly isolated his five Covid-hit labourers in an under-construction toilet at a bus stand in Pangi area of Chamba district. Video images of the labourers sleeping in the toilet evoked shock and anger among local residents.

Chamba Deputy Commissioner DC Rana, when contacted, said: "Officials, who were sent to Pangi to verify the facts, found that the contractor had allotted a room to the labourers at the under-construction bus stand. They were using the 'sulabh shauchalaya' at the bus stand as washroom. The SDM, Pangi, has now moved the labourers to an inn."
