BRO labourers open defecation video at River Indus gone viral

VoL Desk, April 29, 2022: Border Road Organisation (BRO) laborers are not provided basic amenities of toilet, toiletry, and sanitation, reported a page ascribed to the Aam Aadmi Party Ladakh on Facebook today.

In a clip, the Facebook page shows a number of BRO laborers ruining the sanctity of River Indus. The pollution of the River Indus is a concern to people and villages dependent on the river for farming and drinking water.

The Aam Aadmi Party page requested the BRO HQ Upshi to provide proper hygienic facilities to its laborers.

It further requested the Health Department, UT Ladakh, and Ladakh Police to prohibit such practices. As Ladakh is almost open defecation-free, such pollution by outsiders has remained a concern for locals in Ladakh and its ecology. Weeks ago, a video had gone viral where tourists were seen riding a vehicle in the Pangong Lake.
