How sad. May the Lord protect the children and may the adults abolish this type of mining, putting in danger so many lives.
This is insane.What a sad world we live in.We will be judged by how we treat the young,weak,and poor.
I am surprised that why not Indian media ever telecast this things, i’ve grown in khasi hills of Meghalaya and love Meghalayan people.
I pray for these children and villages. It’s sad how their lives are determined just by where they’re born
I’m from Meghalaya infact from Jiantia Hills. First of all thank you very much for making this video its the first time I see how coal mines in our state looks like its the first time i got the idea how all along these miners had to work it touches me i feel ashame of my Country to watch this.
Thanks for covering NE India ….A lot to discover in Assam & other NE states as well
It’s very difficult life for them those who are working in coal mining. Earlier i also worked for one year in 2003.
Meghalaya do not share its border neither with China nor Myanmmar. the credibility of your story can be sometimes judge by this type of error. Nevertheless it is very eye opening
I would give all of those children health care a GREAT education if I could
Thanks a lot ABCNews for this feature/documentary.
For all those Schedule Tribes (S.T.s) in Meghalaya and other parts of north eastern 🇮🇳 who complain about racism in their own country, please remember that you have the 6th Schedule of the 🇮🇳n Constitution which means you can do whatever you want on your land without interference from non-native people and that we pay taxes for you because S.T.s from north eastern 🇮🇳 pay 0 tax whatsoever.
Yes, we NE India look very different from Indian… We look more mongalians… And the workers kid were talking in Nepali.. They are Indian too … Nepali in NE are so hard working ..trust worthy people! Hope this world’s a better place that kid will enjoy being kid.. not work like this
That kid just got the karma jackpot. Good on him and you guys getting the real news out.
We in our USA, had a lot of coal miners, the age of 8-9 years old. They were experienced hands at 12 yrs old.If you do not know that you do not read history
This is so sad. I felt so claustrophobic just watching. I wish there was something I could do.
Perhaps if American children could see this they would appreciate there lives,country and the opportunity from it they receive more. I don’t think they are as fat and lazy as we may think, Just misdirected a bit.
I never thought that the renowned abc news would come to our state.
These kids are still way too cute to be mining. This video made me want to become a millionaire just so that I could buy them all an education and food.
This what the rest of the world experience. We are taking many things for granted.
American kids would do good to see this, so unfortunate. Were are so blessed in the USA
Very sad thing that coal mining in Meghalaya is pathetic to the extent of using poor young miners as young as at the age of 9 years,their lively hood is being manipulated by Coal Barrons who don’t care about human lives as well the environmental conditions on how the extract coal.They have spoiled lives as well depleted the beautiful landscape even water is undringable and nothing can be done about this issue.When repeatedly the National Green Tribunal {Loopholes in The System} rampant over love of money is the root of all evil as The Bible says!!!
Dar ke age jeet he young india and strong india jai hind
Pemba is a true hero
This is absolutely harrowing … 🙁
I think that mine is as filthy as my apartment with all the smokers smoking in their units filling the air with tar and toxic particles
India is a vast country with a lot of resources too but pity that it cannot make better the lives of some of its people too.just sad

Now 15 of them are stuck in mine and our government is busy sleeping.

I’m from Meghalaya and I know how they feel
Well, India is a Sub Continent of people of different races, Indians can look Middle Eastern, African, Asian or Central Asian. Most Eastern Indians.look like Asians, Perhaps because Present day India has these boundaries, There were no boundaries between Middle East – India – Central Asia – Tibet since millennia where various races interbred. All these National Boundaries you see was invented a few centuries ago.
i guess if they were born in that kinda family n community, it’s very hard to get out of it.
its hard, when religion dont even touch your pride
I’m claustrophobic from just watching. This is horrible.
How cleverly this Rosanna Lyngdoh and other tribals over there didn’t reveal that these children are trafficked from 🇳🇵 and 🇧🇩.
17 miner are stuck in that same mine..government is doing nothing for them
i would like work there 🙂 to shrink my pride and build my honor
Red hole minings are totally ban in india…but some peoples are operating illegal coal mines and they are also trapping minor childrens for coal mine because of they promise more money…
