A 17-year-old girl tragically lost her life in a hit-and-run accident near a tuition center in Nagpur on the evening of October 7, 2025. According to police reports, the incident occurred around 7:30 p.m. when the victim, a Class 12 student, was returning home after classes in the Manewada area. Eyewitnesses said a speeding SUV struck her and fled the scene immediately. Local residents rushed the girl to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared her brought dead. The Sakkardara police have registered a case of culpable homicide not amounting to murder and are reviewing CCTV footage from surrounding buildings to identify the vehicle and driver. Officers believe the vehicle was overspeeding and suspect reckless driving as the primary cause. The incident has sparked outrage among locals, who staged a brief protest demanding stricter enforcement of traffic and speed regulations near educational institutions. Parents and students have also urged authorities to install speed breakers and surveillance cameras to prevent such tragedies in the future. #NagpurNews #HitAndRun #RoadSafety #NagpurAccident #StudentDeath #TrafficRules #NagpurPolice #JusticeForVictims #UrbanSafety #Vidarbha
Despite ongoing efforts to tackle civic issues, many citizens continue to face daily inconveniences as numerous complaints remain unresolved. The Public Works Department (PWD) recently reported receiving over 7,000 grievances, highlighting persistent problems in the city’s infrastructure. A large portion of these complaints focus on pothole-ridden roads, which make commuting risky and uncomfortable, and broken footpaths, which pose safety hazards for pedestrians, especially the elderly and school-going children. Residents have expressed frustration over delayed action, pointing out that while complaints are acknowledged, timely repairs are often lacking. Civic activists argue that proactive monitoring, better resource allocation, and faster response mechanisms are essential to ensure that citizens’ concerns are addressed efficiently. Until systemic changes are implemented, these infrastructural woes are likely to continue affecting the day-to-day life of many. #CivicIssues #PWD #InfrastructureProblems #Potholes #FootpathSafety #UrbanDevelopment #CityMaintenance #PublicComplaints #CitizenConcerns #UrbanSafety
Nagpur's road safety is under scrutiny as overgrown shrubs and ornamental plants on road dividers are creating blind spots, particularly for two-wheeler riders. Areas like Maharajbagh to University Library Square, Alankar Talkies Square to Jhansi Rani Square, Inner Ring Road, and parts of Pratap Nagar have been identified as high-risk zones. Riders have reported branches scraping helmets or bodies when maneuvering traffic, especially during peak hours. Residents and commuters are raising concerns about the inadequate maintenance of these green spaces. While the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) claims periodic trimming, citizens argue that upkeep is irregular, worsened by monsoon-driven growth. Experts warn that limited visibility at turns increases the risk of collisions. There is a growing call for immediate and systematic pruning by NMC in coordination with traffic authorities to prioritize road safety. #news #Newsone #NagpurRoadSafety #TrafficHazard #TwoWheelerSafety #BlindSpots #RoadMaintenance #NMCAlert #CommuterSafety #UrbanSafety
A tragic incident occurred on the night of September 22, 2025, when a three-storey building collapsed in Indore's Ranipura locality, near Daulatganj. The collapse resulted in the death of two individuals and left 12 others injured. Among the deceased were Alfia, a 20-year-old woman, and her uncle, Faimuddin Ansari. The injured, including a three-month-old baby girl and a seven-year-old boy, were admitted to Maharaja Yeshwantrao Hospital, with four in critical condition. Rescue operations were launched promptly, with teams working through the night to extricate survivors from the rubble. The building, approximately 8 to 10 years old, reportedly had stagnant water accumulation beneath its foundation, which may have contributed to the collapse. Preliminary investigations suggest that the structure had been weakened by prolonged water exposure. Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava confirmed that the building was around 8 to 10 years old and that part of it had fallen onto a neighboring structure. Authorities have initiated an inquiry to determine the exact cause of the collapse and to assess the structural integrity of similar buildings in the area. The incident has raised concerns about the safety standards of older buildings in Indore, prompting calls for stricter enforcement of building regulations and regular inspections to prevent such tragedies in the future. #news #Newsone #IndoreBuildingCollapse #BuildingSafety #StructuralCollapse #EmergencyResponse #UrbanSafety #AccidentNews #CityNews #SafetyStandards
