Among the two injured, one is a 10-year-old, who was hospitalised. Around 3:30 pm, the speeding car first hit the extension of a cafeteria near the college and then ran over a bicyclist before hitting a street pole that brought it to a stop, police and eyewitnesses said. The incident was caught on CCTV, the footage of which has been doing the rounds on social media.

It had struck people standing there before colliding with an electric pole,' said Lucknow police in their official statement. According to eyewitnesses, the woman was driving rashly, which resulted in the car losing control. 'It crashed into a pole, otherwise, it would have injured more people,' said one. Police said Tanu Gupta, 35, who lives in Saadatganj area of the city and works in the real estate sector, was driving the car. She was coming from the Daliganj Crossing when she struck people. Madyeganj SHO Rajesh Singh said, 'The woman was an experienced driver and had her driving licence as well. She was not under the influence of alcohol.' The SHO added an FIR had been registered under relevant sections of the BNS in the case. Police, with the assistance of locals, rushed the injured to the Balrampur Hospital. Virendra Pandey, 45, from Khadra succumbed to his injuries during treatment, said the statement. Pandey was a contract worker at KGMU. His brother Sunil Pandey said he was returning home from a market when he was run over. He is survived by his wife Saroj, son Krishna and daughter Anya Pandey. Daksh Sonkar, 10, who hails from Bansmandi Bhanu Tola on Sitapur Road and was under medical care, was one of the two people injured in the accident. The other is a woman, but was yet to be identified. She is believed to be a beggar. She sustained minor injuries in the mishap. Mujahid, an eyewitness, said: 'I was heading towards the crossing on my bicycle when I saw a car speeding down the other track. As I approached the gate of Shia PG College, I heard a loud noise. I stopped my bicycle and saw that the same car had run over several people. I rushed to the spot. One of the injured was being taken in an e-rickshaw, but he appeared to have died already. All of this happened within 3-4 minutes.' The car in question was seized and taken to a police station. Authorities confirmed that no law-and-order disturbance took place following the accident.

Are you eating too much sugar? Fitness coach shares 7 ‘warning signs'
Too much sugar is unhealthy and can cause long-term health complications. But how much sugar is too much sugar? It seems that the body always knows when it is overloading on sugar and starts showing signs. Fitness coach Bhavika Patel shared an Instagram post on May 19 and addressed the warning signs that the body shows when we consume too much of sugar.

That's unstable blood sugar. Pair carbs with protein and fiber for smoother energy. Sugar fuels more sugar cravings, especially around PMS. Balance your plate to break the cycle. Blood sugar dips can mess with your mood. Ditch added sugars and eat regularly for mental calm. Hormone-related blemishes? Sugar can make them worse. Support your skin by cutting back on processed snacks. Late-night sugar spikes can disrupt your cortisol and melatonin, wrecking sleep. Focus on protein + fiber at dinner. Excess sugar feeds bad gut bacteria, leading to digestive drama. Swap for whole foods to support your microbiome. Excess sugar often parks itself around the midsection. Prioritize protein, healthy fats, and fiber to encourage fat loss. In a February 2025 interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr. Tanu Gupta, physician and diabetologist, founder PeachX Health said, 'When we consume too much sugar, our digestive system experiences dysbiosis—a reduction in beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus while harmful bacteria flourish. This imbalance not only impairs digestion but also weakens the gut barrier, allowing toxins and bacteria to leak into the bloodstream and trigger systemic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is a known precursor to metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.'
