Indian woman compares domestic workers in Delhi and Chennai, triggers backlash: 'Too much to expect respect?'
An Indian woman has divided social media after she compared the "work ethic and mindset" of domestic workers in the national capital as compared to those working in Chennai, after she lived in the southern city for four years and then moved to Delhi. She claimed that her observations led her to the conclusion that the difference was in the "mindset and ambition" of domestic workers.(Representational) A former news professional took to LinkedIn to share her observations on the "stark difference" she experienced in domestic workers in North and South India. "In Chennai, whether it was professionals or household help, I saw sincerity. My maid started her day at 6.30 AM, worked in 5–6 houses till 1 PM, and then joined an MNC from 2 PM to 9 PM for cleaning. On weekends, she'd take up extra work — tailoring, garland-making-to earn more and give her children a better life," she wrote. She also praised the domestic worker for her honesty after she asked her employer to deduct her salary if she did not show up to work for a period beyond her fixed leave. "No drama — just accountability. Once, when I wasted some food unintentionally, she gently said, 'Akka, if you can't finish something, give it to us. Don't throw it away.' That respect for food and values stayed with me," she added. However, when she moved to Delhi, the situation was quite different. She claimed that within a year, she employed six maids, and all of them constantly took leave without informing herfirst. "When questioned, I got excuses — 'someone died,' 'I fainted,' 'a relative is in hospital.' It became routine. Forget saying 'cut salary' — here, even suggesting it offends them. Boundaries turn you into the villain. Even accepting leftover food was an issue, often rejected with ego. That's when I started wondering: What's really different?," she wrote. She claimed that her observations led her to the conclusion that the difference was in the "mindset and ambition". "In the South, many domestic workers — even without education — speak broken but confident English, value time, and dream of a better future. In contrast, in the North, some seem unwilling to rise above the 'garibi rekha.' With free rations like ₹1 rice and dal, survival is covered, but dreams are sidelined. Education is often a means to midday meals, not growth," she said. The woman claimed that government aid has replaced ambition, hampered growth. "This is not about North vs. South. It's about how values, systems, and the environment shape people. Where work is respected, people thrive. Where support replaces ambition, growth stops," she concluded. However, her post failed to resonate with many users, who labelled it "shortsighted" and "privileged". "Framing the 'good' domestic worker as someone who agrees to salary cuts for extra leave or gratefully accepts leftover food just trivialises the profession altogether. Why is it too much to expect self-respect across all professions?" remarked one user. Another added, "Domestic work is still work - it deserves dignity, fair boundaries, and wages that aren't subject to casual penalties. Comparing two regions by reducing their workers to who is more 'compliant' is problematic," added another. "Maids rejecting the leftover food is an assertion of their self-respect. You should appreciate it rather than expecting them to be submissive," wrote a third user.

Environment ministry notifies rules for management of contaminated sites
NEW DELHI: The Union environment ministry has notified the Environment Protection (Management of Contaminated Sites) Rules, 2025 for remediation of contaminated sites by those responsible for contamination These rules are important in light of incidents such as the Baghjan oil field blowout in Assam in 2020 The rules also provide for voluntary remediation of sites that are not already identified as contaminated. The local body or district administration, on its own or on receipt of a complaint from the public, shall identify an area affected with contaminants and list all such areas as suspected contaminated sites in its jurisdiction on a centralised online portal, according to the rules. The notification names 189 contaminants and their response level for agricultural, residential, commercial and industrial areas. A senior official said the rules will not apply to radioactive waste as defined under clause (xxii) of rule 2 of the Atomic Energy (Safe Disposal of Radioactive Wastes) Rules, 1987 or mining operations as defined under clause (d) of section 3 of the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Act, 1957 among others. But, if the contamination of a site is due to a contaminant mixed with radioactive waste or mining operations or oil spill or solid waste from a dump site, and if the contamination of the site due to the contaminant exceeds the limit of response level specified in these rules, then remediation of the site would be covered under these rules. The rules cover various halogenated aromatic compounds, pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, organofluorine compounds, and some metals, among others. These rules are important in light of incidents such as the Baghjan oil field blowout in Assam in 2020, near the Maguri-Motapung Wetland and the Dibru-Saikhowa National Park, which impacted the ecosystems in the area. The local body or District Administration shall furnish the state board with a list of suspected contaminated sites on a half-yearly basis. Upon receipt of a list of suspected contaminated sites, the state board, either on its own or through a reference organisation, undertakes a preliminary site assessment of the suspected contaminated site by sampling and analysis within ninety days from the date of receipt of such a list. The state board shall then furnish a list of probable contaminated sites and investigated sites to the Central Board on the centralised online portal within thirty days from the date of completion of the preliminary site assessment. The state board shall issue a public notice restricting or prohibiting any activity during the preliminary or detailed assessment of the suspected or probable contaminated site, taking into account the risks involved to human health and the environment. It shall publish the list of contaminated sites on the centralised online portal, inviting comments and suggestions from the stakeholders likely to be affected, within sixty days of such publication. It is the state board's responsibility to identify, following an inquiry, the person responsible for causing the site contamination within a period of ninety days. In case the contaminated site has been transferred by the person (transferor) causing the contamination to another person (transferee), the state board shall determine the transferee as the responsible person. Where the responsible person is identified, the state board shall direct the responsible person to prepare a remediation plan and undertake remediation through a reference organisation as selected by the state board and bear all the expenses towards it. The state board shall review and approve the remediation plan submitted by the responsible person within three months from the date of submission of remediation plan, and forward it to the Central Board. However, where the responsible person is not identified, the state board shall, on its own or through the reference organisation, prepare a remediation plan within six months from the date of publication of the contaminated site, for undertaking remediation of the contaminated site either out of its own resources or through support from State Government or both and resources of Central Government. The central board may appoint any reference organisation to verify the completion of remediation activities. In all cases, funds for conducting preliminary assessment and detailed assessment for suspected contaminated site and probable contaminated site, respectively, may, to the extent feasible, be initially met in whole or part by the Central Government from the Environmental Relief Fund under sub-section (9) of section 7 of the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991 and also by the State Government. Further, the central government shall constitute the Central Remediation Committee to review the remediation activities under these rules. The committee will consist of chairman, Central Board; a representative from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs; the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce and Industry; the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers; the Ministry of Science and Technology; the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare; two technical experts from the field of environment, geotechnical and industrial waste management to be nominated by the Central Government among others. The state board may impose environmental compensation on any responsible person who does not comply with the provisions of these rules in undertaking the remediation or does not undertake the remediation under these rules in respect of a contaminated site and poses risks to human life and the environment, contributing thereby to loss, damage or injury tothe environment or human health. 'The Rules address a long-pending legal vacuum around the remediation of legacy pollution sires, but they place disproportionate operational and oversight burden on the State and Central Pollution Control Boards, which are already constrained by limited capacity. The composition of the Remediation Committees is also skewed toward industrial, urban development, and chemical sector ministries, with little to no representation from the Ministries such as Agriculture, Jal Shakti, or Environment which are important trustee of the soil and water. Furthermore, the absence of independent ecologists, public health experts, and social science raises concerns about balanced decision-making. There should also be a third-party audit or an independent verification mechanism in the remediation or monitoring phases for proper monitoring,' said Debadityo Sinha, Lead- Climate & Ecosystems, Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy.
