September 4, 2016

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.

Chamarajanagar, Jan 3: The residents of Galipura layout in Chamarajanagar city boycotted the annual Community Based Survey (CBS), conducted by the Health and Family Welfare department, mistaking it to be the National Register of Citizens (NRC).

Majority of the residents in the layout belong to Muslim community. The people, who mistook CBS to the NRC survey, got into arguments with the Asha workers, who were given the responsibility of collecting information. They even tore the forms into pieces and vent their ire.

The Health Department conducts CBS every year in the urban areas and collects all details including Aadhaar number, residential address, details of family members, health problems and others.

Fifteen Asha workers were deputed for the survey in the layout. A few youths started questioning them alleging it to be an NRC survey and started arguing with them.
Tahsildar Mahesh, District Health and Family Welfare Officer Dr N C Ravi, with the help of Muslim leaders cleared the confusion. The community leaders assured of explaining it to the residents and extend cooperation to the survey.
