Sindh Labour Department has shown a lack of interest in holding an investigation into the factory boiler blast and the wounded labourers were not given any medical facility nor they were shifted to a government hospital for completing legal procedures.
The provincial labour department has not sent any official to inspect the factory so far despite the boiler explosion that killed two labourers and injured another. According to the reports, a serious violation of the labour law is being made in the private steel factory with the nexus of the police and the administration.
Videos of the terrifying boiler blast have also surfaced which showed the employees working without the safety gear, long shoes and helmets. There were no arrangements for basic medical assistance nor an ambulance was available to shift the workers to the hospital.
