The Delhi government has issued new Safety Guidelines for Construction Sites following two deaths at Public Works Department (PWD) construction sites. The guidelines state that a contractor will be blacklisted in the event of a fatal accident, with administrative action also taken against officials. Failure to clear construction and demolition waste will result in a levy of Rs 5 lakh compensation on the contractor. The guidelines also require proper barricading, no waterlogging, and the presence of safety engineers on site for works costing more than Rs 1 crore.
