Delhi govt orders probe as biker falls to death in DJB pit in Janakpuri

NEW DELHI: An employee of a private bank, while riding a bicycle on Thursday night, tragically fell to his death into a pit that had been dug up for a Delhi Jal Board (DJB) project and fenced with green mesh in West Delhi's Janakpuri. In response to this incident, the Delhi government has initiated an inquiry.

The body of Kamal Dhayani, 25, a resident of Vikaspuri, and his bike were extracted from the 20-foot-deep pit on Joginder Singh Marg around 8.30 a.m. on Friday by the fire department, the police said. A case was registered under the relevant penal provisions.

The incident, which came close to a similar tragic death of techie Yuvraj Mehta in a water-filled pit in Noida, sparked a political war in the national capital city with the opposition Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) alleging negligence.
