Sri Vijaya Puram, Mar 04: The Andaman Nicobar Territorial Congress Committee President, Mr. Rangalal Halder, recently visited Harminder Bay in Little Andaman, a tribal region with a population of approximately 2000 people. During his visit, he was deeply disturbed to learn about the complete lack of a mortuary van in the area. This has created an unbearable situation where grieving families are forced to transport their deceased loved ones using private vehicles, adding to their emotional distress and raising serious concerns about hygiene and human dignity.
In his letter to the Chief Secretary, Andaman & Nicobar Administration, Mr. Halder highlighted the anguish and helplessness of the residents in handling such tragic situations. The exorbitant cost of arranging alternative transportation further burdens the people, making it unacceptable that such a fundamental service remains unavailable in a region that so desperately needs it.
Mr. Halder strongly urged the Administration to take immediate action to allocate a dedicated mortuary van for Harminder Bay. He emphasized that providing this essential service would offer much-needed relief to the residents and ensure that they receive the dignity and respect they deserve during times of loss.
The ANTCC President called upon the authorities to address this pressing issue without delay, reaffirming his commitment to advocating for the welfare of the people of Harminder Bay.
