Greater Noida: The world of biking and adventure has lost a bright star; famed bike rider and Youtuber Agastya Chauhan (25) has left his fans in dismay after the biker met with an accident while riding his bike at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour (kmph). The incident occurred at the 47-kilometer milestone of the Yamuna Expressway while he was on his way from Agra to Delhi along with his friends.

Agastya was a resident of Dehradun and had a massive fan following on social media, where he shared his passion for biking and adventure with over 12 lakh subscribers. His demise has left his millions of fans in utter shock and disbelief.

According to reports, Agastya's bike hit a divider, causing him to lose control and crash. The impact was so severe that his helmet shattered, resulting in fatal injuries. Despite the best efforts of emergency services, he passed away on the spot.

Meanwhile, a Times of India report, quoting one of Agastya's friends, claimed the incident was a case of hit-and-run, with a truck ramming into Agastya's bike from behind. However, due to the absence of proper CCTV cameras, these allegations are yet to be confirmed. According to the report, the police are currently investigating the matter using CCTV footage and Agastya's helmet camera.

Upon receiving news of the accident, the Tappal police station of Aligarh district rushed to the scene and took custody of Agastya's body. The body was then sent to the mortuary of Kailash Hospital in Jewar, Greater Noida, for post-mortem.

Speaking on the incident, the Senior Superintendent of Police IPS Kalanidhi Naithani expressed his condolences and confirmed that the famous YouTuber and bike racer had passed away in the painful road accident. After the post-mortem, the body was handed over to his family members, reported India Today.

Bengaluru: Karnataka’s Home Minister Dr. G. Parameshwara on Thursday said that an FIR will be registered against Madhya Pradesh BJP Minister Vijay Shah for his alleged controversial remarks about Colonel Sophia Qureshi. He also stated that legal proceedings will be reviewed in this regard.

Speaking to reporters in the city on Thursday, he said, “Colonel Sophia Qureshi is the daughter-in-law of Belagavi. I have instructed the Belagavi SP to lodge an FIR against the minister who made controversial statements about Colonel Sophia Qureshi and inform the central government about the action to be taken against him.”

Expressing displeasure over the Minister’s remarks, Parameshwara noted that the BJP leader's statement is not just an insult to Colonel Qureshi, and that it is an insult to the entire country. He said, no one should harbour such a narrow-minded outlook.

Also addressing the issue of pending funds from the union government, Parameshwara said, “However, due to various reasons, the funds have either been delayed or withheld. The Chief Minister has convened a meeting on the matter and has urged state MPs to press the central government for the immediate release of the funds.”

He also announced that the state government will be organizing a large-scale event on May 20 in Hospet, Vijayanagar district. “In this government programme, the Revenue Department will distribute property certificates to over 50,000 beneficiaries. The event will be attended by Lok Sabha Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi, Rajya Sabha Opposition Leader and AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge, and senior Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala,” he added.
