An 8-year-old boy was found dead in a water tank in Laxminagar, Nalasopara East, on Wednesday

A heart rending report in this paper once again throws the spotlight on adequate security at construction sites. An 8-year-old boy was found dead in a water tank in Laxminagar, Nalasopara East, on Wednesday. The boy, in Std IV, was playing in the area while his parents were away attending a puja.
After a long search, his parents filed a missing complaint, but locals found his body in a water water storage tank in an under-construction building in the area. There was no cover on the tank and the boy must have fallen in and drowned. The building had no boundary wall.
