‘Wish I could have saved the others too': Security guard who pulled out lone survivor from burning car that killed 5

When Ajeet Chaudhary and his cousin Bhura left their homes in Bulandshahr for Noida on a motorcycle on Wednesday around 4.45 am, they were expecting a normal drive to work. Ajeet had recently celebrated his 28th birthday, and the duo was soaking in the pleasant memories. Minutes later, however, they saw a burning car. '… it was in flames. There were other people on the road, too, but no one stopped,' recalled Ajeet. They spotted the burning white Maruti Swift after they stopped at a petrol pump and then drove towards a roundabout near Anupshahr. 'I told Bhura that we should go and check if someone was inside, and he agreed. We parked our bike a few meters away,' recalled Ajeet. What he did next was an act of courage that saved a life. 'A woman in the back seat was hitting the car's window with both her hands. I tried to open the door but failed. The car had already burned partially. I started looking for a stone around, picked up one from the road, and hit the window pane with all my might. The door opened,' he recounted. Two people sitting in the front of the car had already died, he said. 'The woman could not move, and I could not pick her up. The intensity of the blaze was increasing. I managed to drag her a few meters away from the car, and I rushed back. I could hear a baby's cry, and the man who was sitting next to her was alive. He was moving, so I gave him my hand, but he couldn't take it. Then he suddenly moved back… maybe he was trying to save the child. I called out, but he didn't move. I could hear Bhura call for help. I came back to the woman,' he said. He dialled 112 twice to reach the police but could not. 'Then I rang up my brother, Yatendra, asking him to inform the police about the fire. Police reached 20 minutes later,' he said. The car had six family members, including a two-year-old. It had caught fire after ramming into the side of a bridge, said police. The family was returning from a wedding in Chamanpura village of Badaun district to their home in Delhi's Malviya Nagar. According to the Circle Officer, Anupshahr, Ram Karan, it prima facie appeared that the driver of the car might have fallen asleep at the wheel. By the time the police reached the spot, Gulnaaz, 27, was the lone survivor of the accident. The woman was trembling. She asked for her phone and dialled a number, then she handed the phone to Ajeet to explain the incident to the man on the other end. 'I told him about the accident and explained the situation,' he said. On Thursday, Ajeet, a security guard at Ace Divino society in Greater Noida, was at work when he shared that he had one regret despite saving a life. 'I hope she (the woman) is fine, but I wish I could have saved the man and the child, too. I can still recall their faces. I cannot imagine the family's loss and grief,' he said.

Who Is Ajeet Singh Dale, Indian-Origin Medium-Pacer To Play For England Lions?

Last Updated: Ajeet Singh Dale, Gloucestershire medium-pacer, is all set to play for England Lions against India A. Star Gloucestershire medium-pacer Ajeet Singh Dale is all set to take the field for the England Lions when they take on India A in an all-important clash for the two sides, with quite a few eyebrows being raised as to who Ajeet is and how the 24-year-old's career has panned out till now. Born in July 2000 in Berkshire, Ajeet is a right-arm medium-pacer and right-handed batter, known for his contributions in the former role. Ajeet started his professional career with Hampshire, making his first-class debut in 2020 during the Bob Willis Trophy. He picked three wickets on debut against Sussex, including that of England allrounder Ollie Robinson. He bagged four wickets in two matches that season, at an average of 18.25. A new career-best of 7-110 for Ajeet Singh Dale, with celebrations to match — Rothesay County Championship (@CountyChamp) May 17, 2025 Ajeet signed with Gloucestershire in 2022 on a multi-year deal, with 2023 proving to be a breakout year for him. He made his T20 debut against Sri Lanka Cricket Development XI but conceded 44 runs in his three overs in that game. Ajeet made his List A debut in the Royal London One-Day Cup and bowled an economic spell of 4-0-24-0 against Surrey. It was in the 2023 season that Ajeet achieved his career-best bowling figures of 6/41 against Worcestershire. Bowling with express pace, Ajeet's talents as a fast bowler have earned him recognition with the Lions as well, in which he showed his potential on the broader stage, and is now set to play against India A. Ajeet is coming off a brilliant performance in the recent County Championship match against Kent. He picked up nine wickets in that game earlier this month, seven coming in one innings.

Meanwhile, a clutch of frontline Indian Test players, including opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, will be eager to acclimatise to English conditions during India A's first four-day unofficial Test against the England Lions. Apart from Jaiswal and Nitish, the India A team has Abhimanyu Easwaran, Dhruv Jurel, Karun Nair, pacers Akash Deep and Shardul Thakur.

Old train coach transformed into fully-equipped bachelor pad; video goes viral

You've probably seen homes made of stone, scrap, or even built with 3D printers—but now, a train coach turned into a fully livable home is stealing the spotlight. Yes, an old Indian Railway coach has been creatively repurposed into a full-fledged house, and the transformation video has gone viral online. The clip, shared on Instagram by Ajeet Singh (@ opens with him standing outside what looks like an abandoned train coach. He walks in, chuckling, and right at the entrance, there are several large 10-litre water bottles stacked neatly. Inside, the usual sleeper berths have been replaced by proper beds, complete with mattresses, pillows, bedsheets, and blankets. You can hear Singh in the background saying, 'Sofa wofa sab rakh rakha hai (There's sofa as well),' clearly impressed by the cozy setup. Ajeet also said, 'Poora ghar hai (This is entirely home).' As he continues filming, more details of the unique home emerge—there are wall hangers, ceiling fans, coolers, ACs, curtains, rugs, proper lighting, and even cupboards. It's not just a temporary arrangement; it genuinely feels like someone's full-time residence. Watch the viral video: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ajeet Singh (@ In another clip, Ajeet is seen hanging out with the men who live there. The coach also has a television, several chairs, and quite a few water coolers–making it feel more like a hostel or shared apartment than an old train. The video has racked up over a million views, and the comments are just as entertaining. One user said, 'Yaar yaha kam karne ke liye kya krna hoga (what would one need to do to work here).' Another user wrote, 'Kitne Tejaswi log hai kon hai yeh log kaha se ate hai aise log (How brilliant these people are – who are they, and where do such people even come from?)' Others praised the idea, calling it a smart reuse of an old compartment. One comment said, 'Train become boys hostel.'
