Employees wear bike helmets in government office in India

BANDA (Dunya News) – Government workers in the Indian city of Banda, Uttar Pradesh state wore bike helmets in office to prevent head injuries if roof of the building collapses on them.

The pictures of employees working at their office in Banda while wearing helmets on their heads became viral on social media.

According to Indian sources, “Government employees aren’t huge motorcycle fans, they’re just wearing the protective head gear in case the roof of the dilapidated building they work in starts to fall apart. They first reported the dangerous state of the office building several years ago, but no one did anything about it, so they decided to start wearing helmets.”

“It’s the same condition since I joined 2 yrs ago. We’ve written to authorities but there is no response,” one of the employees said.
