Safety laws are pretty much non existent in India, yes. But i wouldn't link those occasional building collapses to that. Most if not all of them are several decades old from before the building code was laid out. Construction sector is well regulated in India now. And old structures will keep collapsing .

Overloading is a design brief for Indian UV development. Actual capability is always much more than what's on 'paper' even in home market. It's bad & dangerous but who's gonna bother, life's quite low price range over there.

 

On par with several other countries that around the globe. Either because of the sheer number of people involved,political unrest,government corruption to name a few of the causes.

 

China is a great example of that. A guy got killed in a factory because a machine didn't have a guard on it. It was cheaper to replace the worker than to surround the moving parts with something that would keep people from getting caught in the machinery. And it's just as bad for the guys working on robots. They're don't have proper lockout procedures and equipment. One time a robot went nuts and hit a guy over and over, beating him to death. So they replaced him too instead of fixing things.
