Delhi’s roads claimed two more lives early Monday on the Mukundpur Flyover in Bhalswa Dairy, northwest Delhi. The two youths on a motorcycle were zipping along when their bike veered out of control, crashing violently into the side railing.
The collision’s force ejected one rider instantly, killing him at the scene. His companion tumbled over the edge into a rushing drain below, where frantic searches by rescuers ended in tragedy. The area turned into a frenzy as locals gathered, sirens wailed, and emergency services scrambled.
On-site police confirmed the dead were transported to Babu Jagjivan Ram Hospital. Families were notified, facing a devastating loss. Speeding emerges as the likely culprit from initial checks, with a dedicated team now dissecting CCTV evidence for clarity.
‘One small mistake, two lives gone forever,’ police noted, highlighting the human cost. The flyover, a vital artery, has seen multiple such mishaps, prompting calls for better safety measures like speed breakers and awareness drives.
In parallel news from Vikaspuri, armed dacoits in helmets stormed a shop, threatening the owner and looting cash before vanishing. Cops are on high alert, combing footage to identify and arrest the brazen thieves. Delhi’s dual battles—reckless driving and street crime—demand urgent action.
