The first-ever safety survey of all 3,000 units in the district is ordered by Gurugram DC.

 Gurugram: CM announces Rs 5 lakh in aid for each of the families of the workers who died in the Daulatabad factory fire.

The chief minister (CM) expressed his sympathies to the families of the four workers who perished in a factory fire in Daulatabad recently and declared that the families would receive compensation of Rs 5 lakh each. He said that the fifth worker’s treatment at Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital would be funded by the state.

Six days ago, a fire that started at a business that made fire extinguisher balls claimed the lives of four workers and seriously injured another twelve.

The local government has launched the first-ever industry safety survey in response to the event. DC Nishant Yadav has mandated a safety survey of all 3,000 industries in the district. The survey will examine equipment maintenance, worker welfare, fire and structural safety, and other factors. The workers who passed away were not registered, therefore they were not eligible for any ESIC payments.

There hasn’t been an all-unit survey in a while. Everything will be examined, including worker benefits, water purity, and fire safety. We cannot afford dangerous units because we are one of the state’s largest industrial hubs,” the DC stated.

The city features numerous unorganized regions, including as Daulatabad, Basia, Binola, Sector 37, and Kadipur, in addition to significant industrial sectors like Manesar and Udyog Vihar. Records show that barely 1% of units have FIR NOCs and routine surveys completed. These are made up of large units. The bulk of small industries lack NOCs and firefighting apparatus.

Fire officials have noted that hundreds of units have not filed for NOC despite multiple checks and warnings. This carelessness significantly increases the risk to the workers and the nearby areas.

Industrialists are unable to get building plans approved without NOC. The zoning confusion, according to the businessmen in areas like Daulatabad, prevents them from receiving NOCs. Records show that residential zones continue to include industrial sites like Daulatabad.

The president of the local industrial association, Pawan Kumar Jindal, reported that 350 of the units had been in operation since 1962. “Up until 2016, MCG and the city council authorized designs for industrial buildings. Later, after the government proclaimed it to be in the “R Zone,” the MCG ceased granting consent, he said.

NOC is not “need”

The NOC is not requested for a number of reasons. A plot of at least 500 meters is required. Most of these are below 450 meters here. In addition to not receiving a NOC from MCG despite paying property taxes, the building plan is not approved. — Pawan Kumar Jindal, the industrial association president
