UP shocker: Mother hires hitman to kill teen daughter but ends up dead
Agra: In a shocking incident from Uttar Pradesh, a 35-year-old woman hired a hitman for ₹50,000 to kill her teenage daughter but ended up being murdered herself. The body of the woman, identified as Alka, was discovered in a field near the Jasrathpur police station in Etah district on October 6.
According to reports, Alka was reportedly "fed up with the teen's behaviour" and engaged a 38-year-old man, Subhash Singh, for the job, unaware that he was actually her daughter’s lover. The Times of India reported that Alka's daughter had eloped with a young man from their area a few months prior, after which Alka sent her to her maternal home in Farrukhabad.
While staying there, the daughter developed a relationship with Subhash, communicating with him for long hours over the phone. Concerned about the calls, her uncle urged Alka to bring her daughter back home. This situation aggravated Alka, leading her to make the fateful decision to have her daughter killed.
On September 27, Alka contacted Subhash and allegedly offered him ₹50,000 to carry out the murder. In a twist of fate, Subhash informed Alka's daughter of the plan. In exchange for killing her mother, the teenager promised to marry him.
During police interrogations, both Subhash and Alka's daughter confessed to their roles in the crime. They were arrested on Wednesday night, and the investigation is ongoing.

'Rear-guard action': BJP over Mamata accepting sports minister's resignation after Messi event
New Delhi (PTI): The BJP on Tuesday alleged that West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's accepting Aroop Biswas' resignation as the state sports minister is nothing but a "rear-guard action" to douse public anger over the mismanagement of football icon Lionel Messi's event last week.
BJP co-in-charge for West Bengal Amit Malviya alleged that this is also an "open confession" that the Messi event fiasco was not accidental but a government-manufactured disaster, borne out of the poor governance of Banerjee, her ministers and the state bureaucracy.
Banerjee on Tuesday accepted Biswas' resignation as the sports minister in the wake of the controversy over the mismanagement of football icon Messi's event last week, a senior leader of the ruling TMC said.
Biswas, who had written to the chief minister seeking to be relieved of his responsibilities as sports minister, will continue as a cabinet minister, retaining charge of the power department.

Reacting to the development, Malviya said in a post on X, "TMC Sports Minister Aroop Biswas resigns after the Messi fiasco and Mamata Banerjee accepts it in record time."
"Do not mistake this for accountability; this is nothing but a rear-guard action to douse public anger. anger! This is not 'Raj Dharma'," he added.
The BJP leader alleged that the incident was the outcome of "loot" of common people which is "so synonymous" with the TMC.
The incident was also the outcome of the "shameless VIP culture that TMC thrives on and deep-rooted cronyism promoted by Banerjee," he charged.
Malviya further alleged that Biswas' resignation exposes a "collective failure of Mamata Banerjee, her partisan bureaucracy, and her crony cabinet".
"This is a symbolic sacrifice, a political hoax, soon to be buried under layers of bureaucracy, with no justice, no accountability, and no remorse," the BJP leader said, adding, "No resignation will bring back the time lost, the money wasted, or the stolen chance for football lovers to witness Messi in Kolkata."
