The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has issued a notice to the Madhya Pradesh Chief Secretary following reports of multiple deaths and illnesses in Indore's Bhagirathpura area due to contaminated drinking water. Preliminary assessments suggest drainage water mixed with the drinking water supply. Residents had reportedly complained for days without action. The NHRC cited a potential human rights violation and requested a detailed report within two weeks. The Chief Minister announced financial aid for victims' families and free treatment.
