Recently, the villagers of Xiatian Village, Songshan Town, Leizhou, Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province, were horrified to find that a sign had been inserted on the grave of their relatives who had passed away for several years, and the words "Cremation of the corpse, Songshan Town People's Government" were written in red paint.
According to statistics, there are dozens of graves in the village that have been cremated like this, and many of them are graves that have been dead for three or four years.
What the hell does the town government want to do! Is it really necessary to dig up these villagers who have been dead for many years from their graves and then take them to the crematorium and burn them all?
For a while, the villagers were panicked, for fear that the graves of their relatives would be dug up by the town government and then burned down. Some villagers reported the situation to the media, hoping that the media could uphold justice for them.
After the media intervened, in the face of reporters who asked to know the situation, the staff of the Songshan Town People's Government said that the label was indeed inserted by the staff of the town government, and the current cremation rate in Shimoda Village is very low.
In response to the questions of netizens, the staff of the town government said that they would not move the ground without authorization, and it was not suitable to break the ground and open the grave now, mainly for the rectification of the newly built grave within 2 years.
If Izumixia knew and saw such a forced demolition, it is estimated that the ancestors and deceased relatives and friends could not sit still, and they would run out of the grave and scold them for not understanding the rules.
No matter what policy or work, we must not engage in a one-size-fits-all approach to people's livelihood issues, and we must not simply and rudely deal with the problems of people's livelihood, let alone extend our black hands to the graves of villagers who have been dead for three or four years because of the low cremation rate, otherwise it is extremely easy to arouse public resentment and anger.
The low cremation rate is caused by various reasons, and we should not put all the blame on the villagers for not cooperating, and we should forget all our responsibilities.
Cremation can be continued, but old graves really can't be dug up!
