Noida: A road rage incident in Noida’s Sector 53 has raised concerns over growing street violence after a Mahindra Thar SUV rammed a young man following a dispute on Instagram. The act, caught on camera and now viral on social media, shows the vehicle hitting the victim with such force that he was flung into a roadside drain.

According to police, the accused and the victim knew each other and had an argument under Sector-24 police station limits. The disagreement reportedly began over comments exchanged on Instagram and escalated into a confrontation on the road.

Eyewitnesses said the altercation turned violent before the Thar driver deliberately accelerated the vehicle, hitting the young man. The victim was left bleeding and motionless while the SUV sped away from the scene.

ADCP Noida, Sumit Kumar Shukla, confirmed that a case has been registered under relevant sections for rash driving, causing hurt, and criminal intimidation. A police team has been formed to arrest the accused, who is currently absconding.

A special investigation team has also been deployed to trace the vehicle and apprehend the driver. The viral video has triggered widespread outrage, with citizens demanding stricter action to curb such violent episodes.

Ranchi, Aug 15 (PTI): Jharkhand Education Minister Ramdas Soren died on Friday, JMM national spokesperson Kunal Sarangi said.

He was 62.

Soren was undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Delhi, where he was admitted on August 2.

"State Education Minister Ramdas Soren, who was undergoing treatment at a hospital in Delhi, is no more," Sarangi told PTI.

Soren's condition was critical and he was on life support, Sarangi said.

The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader was airlifted to the hospital in the national capital from Jamshedpur after he fell in the bathroom of his residence on August 2.

A multidisciplinary team of senior specialists was closely monitoring his condition and providing intensive medical care.

Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren condoled his death.

Hemant Soren, in a post on X, wrote, "Ramdas Da (brother) should not have left us like this. Last greetings to Dada..."

Ramdas Soren, born in Ghorabandha village in East Singhbhum district on January 1, 1963, began his political journey as the gram pradhan of the Ghorabanda panchayat, eventually rising to become one of the most influential ministers in the Hemant Soren-led cabinet.

He won the Ghatshila assembly seat for the third time in 2024 by defeating BJP's Babulal Soren, son of former chief minister Champai Soren.
