- 30th April 2023 | Ludhiana’s Giaspura, Punjab. 11 people dropped dead in just 15 mins! Authorities suspect that gas leaked from open sewers after high levels of toxic gas was detected in this area, surrounded by industries. But when Down To Earth’s team reached Ludhiana, we realized this incident was just a wake-up call. The real issue is much bigger and affects communities at large
So, there are 2 theories of what must have happened. One is that the industries could have dumped some chemicals into the domestic sewer line that then mixed with H2S to form a toxic gas. The other theory is that the sewers were not cleaned or not cleaned properly. But the problem that we see is not restricted to Giaspura alone. This is related to how the city manages its water, waste and industrial pollution.

Awesome coverage. Keep it up.
M from Ludhiana....very nice documentary by D2E.... M regular viewer of D2E for preparation for civil service exams..
once the city was famous for its Punjab Agricultural University n its role in Green Revolution, hosiery, largest bicycles hub....
Now industrialists from another states n its own are making it most dangerous city in world...
Ludhiana Municipal corporation is worst... corruption n Greed of making money without consideration of people's lives seems no stoppage...
Shame on indian news channels for failing to cover this matter on broad prospective.
What is the purpose of CPCB if drinking water is polluted with lead, mercury, arsenic all over the nation and accidents like this occur?
This is good journalism.. keep up the good work
They should make a law to use only natural dyes for textiles and ban artificial dyes.
Such a worst happening and suffering should be taken care of.
Down to earth magazine showing us the real picture..
Urgent need to taken care of people plss...
Thankful for this expansion of educational magazine/journalism in the wake of paralysed mainstream media.
It is probably the future.. media reporting by subject experts related to the topics of their expertise.
I think many more such organisations can and should slowly expand into regular & active journalism in their own domains.. and hopefully isolate these useless sold out prime time presenters.
This model will give opportunities to serious journalists and viewers to relate education & news together.. create pressure on governments for development.
Good Journalism and investigation!
Awesome reporting Rohini 👏👏
superb reporting
This is really scary
I am pretty sure it's not limited to ludhiana
We want development but not with cost of health
Great job 👍
Great effort by Team D2E in exposing the nudity of Punjab Government
Best journalism
Just think about sewage cleaning workers.😢
I have myself seen people burning waste in so many places Jammu Sonipat Jaipur Punjab and whenever tried stopping people don’t care
This is a real concern for the general public residing near the factory areas. State Government should do something about it. The should relocate the factories somewhere isolated area.
What country is that in?
Poor humans 😔
Why this news is not covered by main stream media ?
Great job DTE. Thanks for spreading this awareness with utmost detailing. Good luck for your efforts in all your ventures!
It's a shame that industries cannot get their act together and work within the environmental.norms; the price we all pay is huge in the short term with the loss of innocent lives and in the long term.with cancers and such like diseases. When will people learn to put people and the planet before profits , how many lives must be lost for this ?
This is the real news... I salute these people... Did any media /journalists discuss at prime time.... Real issues r kept under the carpet by main stream media...
That'swhy we see many Cancer, Heartattack patients even in Children now a days..
The channel is raising such important issues but
Is there any changes brought about by these documentries cause our system is such a
Moti chamdi
Ki ak do baar mai to unke kaano per joo bhi nhi rengti
Punjab........
Multiple factors: Industries paying PPCB officials to give clearance, paying the government to safeguard from policies, non-expert bureaucrats either doing political bidding or restricted by threats, no media coverage, lack of widespread people's movement for accountability
Also we really need to buy what we need and not hoard stuff and turn to natural stuff
This has to be the industrial pollutants, because domestic sewage do kill human beings!!! 😢 Why EIA of the industries were not done ??? 🙏
Upsc walon ke liye ye accha hai
"In horrible unnatural colours " and There is a high demand for horribly unnatural colours in the fashion industry! Hence the supply at the cost of precious albeit poor HUMAN LIVES!
Everyone is to be blamed for this government governance people everyone
awesome work mates....the problem is the hoi polloi don't really care about these issues. They seem to have chosen the fate. The environmental activists are called as Crazy. I was called crazy when i talk about environment.😂😂..
Wish Indian public demands 1 child policy because at the root of it all is the shear volume of consumption aka consumer volume.
Of course there are other factors that should be dealt asap as well but reducing consumption is by far the most effective.
Democracy isn't just about voting your favourite religious party to power, it's about active boots on the ground participation, everyday. India doesn't need bullet trains, ugly giant statues. She needs proper sewerage treatment, roads(built scientifically, with proper camber, rainwater harvesting drains), citizens oversight committees, fierce protection of natural and social capital...water above all else. Kudos to the DTE team, excellent exposé. Respect and thanks from Goa
Your context on democracy and accusation on India's infrastructure growth seems very politically driven. And yes, many issues are in need of address but remember policy implementation lies in the hand of bureaucracy. So, rather than complaining what India needs to do what not, what it needs or not, what Indias governance should be, I might suggest you to prepare for civil service maybe. Since such a sincere citizen as you are, be of some value for the Indian society rather than mocking over the Internet everywhere, misdirecting people.
Some people doesn't even know how central goverment and state goverment works and start criticising by targeting central govement BJP. Get well soon sick people. And tag state govement AAP.
😂😂😂
Democracy is all about voting that political party which is giving free electricity,free water and not giving a shit about proper sanitation.Think logically and then react , it's not about democracy or politics it's about providing people all their basic necessities which are necessary for survival.
Please do composting at home don’t burn waste and stop using plastic everyone please we result need to start doing and not just talk
