The untimely demise of Noida-based software engineer Yuvraj has sparked a rigorous probe, culminating in a crucial nighttime high-level conference at the Noida Authority headquarters. SIT Chairman ADG Bhanu Bhaskar led the discussions alongside senior officials like Divisional Commissioner Bhanu Chandra Goswami and PWD’s Ajay Verma.
Under intense scrutiny were top brass including Police Commissioner Laxmi Singh, DM Medha Rupam, and Noida Authority’s ACEOs Krishna Karunesh and Satish Pal. They face demands for exhaustive accounts of the sequence of events. The SIT’s stern message resonated: accountability is non-negotiable.
By Friday, departments must furnish detailed written clarifications. The team will reconvene in Noida to dissect these documents, focusing on seven pivotal issues outlined in reports exceeding 60 pages. District disaster protocols are likewise under review.
Investigators are zeroing in on inter-departmental communication gaps, post-alert response efficiency, on-site rescue initiatives, operational failures, and plot possession records for Sports City. Crucially, why no preventive measures followed an earlier truck crash at the location remains a burning question.
As the January 24 deadline for the final report looms, officials brace for potential repercussions. This case underscores systemic vulnerabilities, drawing sharp oversight from state authorities amid widespread public outrage.
