Government employees wear helmets in office building. The reason is not what you think

Pictures of government employees wearing helmets in an office building have been going viral. But their reason for doing so is not what you think.

Pictures of employees of the electricity department in Banda, Uttar Pradesh sitting in their office building wearing helmets are going viral.

No, this is not the after-effects of the amendment in the challan laws. The helmets are for the safety purposes only, but they are doing so, because they do not feel safe in their office building.

ANI shared a tweet with the pictures of the dilapidated office building and the employees wearing helmets with the caption, "Banda: Employees of electricity dept wear helmets to protect themselves from any untoward incident while working in the dilapidated office building. One of the employees says, 'It's the same condition since I joined 2 yrs ago. We've written to authorities but there is no response.'"
