Hit by bus the teenager, an 18 year old boy was breathing his last and the onlookers were clicking photos as public apathy hit a fatal accident leading to the boy’s death. We talk about intolerance for trivial issues but this one is a major one and involves the life of a person but still there was no human consideration and vested interests prevail over. Even in death one has to suffer and no one is there to come forward to make a concerted effort to go all out and save a dear life. This is not the first time such incidents are happening. Even in Metro cities people just wait and watch rather than plunge into action and do a world of good to rescue the victim. There is no value for human life and such types of reaction really make you witness a different type of intolerance.
