Compensation mandated under judicial directions for deaths of sewerage workers in manholes and septic tanks since 1993 applies universally to all victims regardless of their specific place of employment, with no geographic or jurisdictional limitation on its scope. As analysed on casestatus.in, such directions issued under the continuing mandamus jurisdiction of the Supreme Court carry a clear and unambiguous character that forecloses restrictive interpretation by the State.
