Family members of the labourers killed in the Meghalaya rat-hole coal mine blast gathered outside Civil Hospital in Khliehriat to collect the bodies of their loved ones. Many travelled for hours—some from Assam, others from Bengal and Nepal—after being informed about the deaths.
With several bodies burnt beyond recognition and due to limited financial means, some families said they were unable to transport the remains back home and would have to perform the last rites of their loved ones locally. The blast in East Jaintia Hills has claimed at least 27 lives, and search operations for bodies or survivors are still on. Nootan Sharma reports from the ground, with National Photo Editor Praveen Jain.
