Nursery student dies after being slapped by teachers in UP's Prayagraj, FIR lodged
Prayagraj: A three-and-a-half-year-old nursery student at a private school in Trans Yamuna area in Prayagraj died after he was allegedly slapped by teachers on Thursday.
An FIR has been lodged with the Naini police station against two teachers under section 105 of the BNS (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) in connection with the student's death.
The family members alleged that the boy, Shivay Jaiswal, was subjected to physical and emotional distress by the teachers.
They alleged that the teachers failed to provide timely care and attention to the child. According to the family's account, on the day of the incident, the child was crying in class and was taken to his elder brother's classroom by one teacher. When the teacher arrived, the child was allegedly slapped by them for crying.
Additional CP (Law & Order) Ajay Pal told TOI, "We are scanning the CCTV footage and legal action will be initiated accordingly. A detailed probe will reveal the exact sequence of events."
According to the family, the school authorities informed the child's father, Virendra Jaiswal, that his son was unwell, prompting him to rush to the school. The child was subsequently taken to SN Children Hospital and SRN Hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
The post-mortem of the boy was conducted by a panel of two doctors and viscera was preserved.
An official at Naini police said, "We have recorded the statements of the family members and school staff regarding the incident."

Mumbai: EOW books R A Associates for allegedly selling same flat twice
MUMBAI : The Economic Offences Wing of Mumbai Police booked developer R A Associates for allegedly selling the same flat twice, causing a financial loss of over Rs 6 crore to a 71-year-old businessman. The businessman, along with his family members, had booked flats in Dadar in 2014. The complainant, Pawan Arya, a resident of Nepean Sea Road, lodged a complaint last week with the Matunga police station against the developer R A Associates and its directors, Rajendra Kothari and Sushil Kothari, under various BNS sections of cheating, forgery, and breach of trust. The case was transferred to the EOW. Arya, who jointly runs multiple businesses with his wife, son, and daughter-in-law, stated in the FIR that the family firm-Arya Ship Industries entered into a registered purchase agreement on 18 July 2014 with R A Associates to buy Flat No. B/3101 in R A Residency, located in Dadar (East). According to Arya, a sum of Rs 5.47 crore was paid to R A Associates at the time, with the balance ₹60.80 lakh cleared between October and November 2022. After repeated delays in possession, the flat was finally handed over on 14 June 2023, and Arya's company took control of the said flat. The company also secured electricity and property tax registrations in its name and received written confirmation from the builder. The Arya family was happy that after 10 years, they finally got possession of their flat, but their happiness did not last long after they learned that the same flat had already been sold—without the company's knowledge or consent—to another party. According to certified documents accessed via the Sub-Registrar's portal, the flat was registered on 13 July 2022 in the name of three individuals: Navinchand Devraj Dedhia, Forum Rajiv Dedhia, and Rajiv Navinchand Dedhia. Arya alleges that the builders, Sushil Kothari and Rajendra Kothari, partners of R A Associates, forged cancellation details of the original 2014 agreement in the later sale deed, despite no actual cancellation occurring. The 2022 document does not contain any annexed agreement of cancellation, raising serious doubts about the legitimacy of the second sale. In a notarised affidavit dated after the second sale, Sushil and Rajendra Kothari allegedly admitted to executing the second transaction under financial duress, citing losses during the Covid-19 lockdown. They promised to resolve the matter but failed to act, Arya's complaint states. "This fraudulent act has not only caused a direct financial loss of Rs 6.08 crore to Arya Ship Industries but also rendered Arya legally vulnerable, as he holds possession of a flat that has been registered to another party," Arya said in his statement. "We have booked the Kotharis, and now we will summon them to justify their second sale when they already sold the flat to Arya," said an officer of the EOW.

CMRL accident: The husband and father who never got to reach home
Thousands of motorists ride past Manapakkam and Porur towards Poonamallee below the Metro Rail elevated corridor, the construction of which has been ongoing for years. Sadly, Ramesh, 43, was caught under the girders and died when they fell from the under-construction flyover, after he stopped briefly on the roadside while returning home from work on Thursday night. According to police, Ramesh, a native of Kaliyakavilai in Nagercoil district, was caught under one of the I-girders that fell from the flyover under construction at Manapakkam. In the city, he lived with his wife Rekha and their 10-year-old daughter at Janaki Nagar, Kattupakkam. He worked at a private firm dealing with billing machines in Choolaimedu. A family friend said, 'At around 9 p.m., he called his wife and told her that he was in Velachery and riding back home. He also said he would arrive in an hour or so after finishing his work. After a few hours, she became anxious and called one of his friends to check on him.' The friend searched for him along the usual route on Mount-Poonamallee Road late at night but was trapped in traffic congestion caused by the collapse of girders. Later that night, he managed to reach the accident spot and found his friend trapped under the debris. The family identified the body after the girders were removed from the site at around 1.30 a.m., police said. Just before the girders collapsed from the flyover, vehicles continued to cross the stretch. Ramesh was caught under the girders when he stopped briefly on the road, police added. The police recovered the body and sent it to Government General Hospital, Chromepet, for post-mortem. After the post-mortem, the body was handed over to the family and taken to his native place. Nandambakkam Police registered a case under Section 105 of the BNS against L&T Project in-charge Narendra Krishna Prabhakar, Project Manager Tata Rao, Construction Manager Mallikarjun, and Erection Manager Benim, police sources said.
