New Delhi, Sep 4: A 24-year-old businessman was killed on Saturday morning after he lost control of his speeding BMW near the Oberoi hotel in central Delhi. More tragically, the accident occurred on the day the man was to be engaged to his girlfriend.

A builder, Abhijit Singh was headed from Defence Colony to Model Town when he rammed the grille of a flyover just outside the Oberoi hotel. He was returning home from his bachelor party at around 5 am.

The car flew across the road and rolled over for 50 metres before coming to a halt. The car's roof was severely damaged and the doors jammed from the severity of the impact.

A passerby who saw the accident, rushed to help. He reportedly cut open the seat belt and pulled Singh from the car. Singh was then rushed to Moolchand hospital, about four kilometers away. The passerby also contacted the police.

Singh was admitted to the intensive care unit, but succumbed to his injuries later in the day.

“He sustained severe head injuries that caused internal bleeding. We have sent the body for a postmortem examination to ascertain the cause of death. We have also initiated an inquiry,” a senior police officer said.

The accident left the deceased's family in shock, who refused to speak to the media.

“Singh's father, a builder, had been preparing for his son's engagement. Even though he had asked Singh to be at home, a day before the engagement, he had insisted to go and party with his friends,” a police officer said.

It is yet to be ascertained if Singh was drink driving.

“The car was definitely speeding. It appears Singh wanted to take the flyover, but instead of going towards the right, the car slid left. Even though he was wearing a seat belt, he could not be saved. Had the car been under the speed limit, it would not have toppled over,” a senior police officer said.

Singh is survived by his parents and an 18-year-old brother.

Bengaluru, May 19: Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa-led Karnataka government has recommended the withdrawal of 46 cases against leaders belonging to Sangh Parivar who had apparently involved in violence during the birth anniversary celebration of Tipu Sultan in the state. 

These cases – ranging from very serious forms of assaults on Muslims to unlawful assembly – were registered across Karnataka between 2014 and 2018.

Among the cases recommended to be withdrawn include those registered against senior state BJP leader Sanjay Patil, VHP leader Swaroop Kalkundri, and several district level Bajrang Dal activists. 

The government recommended withdrawal of these cases under Section 321 of the Code of Criminal Procedure on March 5. 

The recommendations, however, have been opposed by three crucial law enforcement departments – Director General and Inspector General of Police (DG & IGP), Director-Department of prosecution and Government litigation and Law department. 

While the DG & IGP has opined that these cases “cannot be withdrawn”, both the department of prosecution and law have observed that these are “not a fit case to withdraw”.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: State’s primary and secondary education minister, S Suresh Kumar on Friday asked the Department of Public Instruction to register a complaint in the cybercrime police station against the teacher who shared a video of a child mispronouncing a Kannada word.

The viral video shows the child from a government school incorrectly pronouncing the word 'Pakkelubu' (ribcage).

The minister observed, 'It is normal for children to pronounce words incorrectly and only repetitive practise will make them say it correctly. If a video of such a mistake is made and spread on the Internet the child will see it in future and be demoralised and might start hate learning. The person who made and posted this video has committed a grave crime.
