Ecovillage 1 residents in Greater Noida West endured an eight-hour power outage after NPCL disconnected supply due to Rs 1.8 crore in unpaid dues. This disruption followed recent clashes between residents and maintenance staff over a previous power cut. The situation intensified as residents, especially those without power backup, struggled in the humid weather, while police investigate the earlier clash.
A viral video showing youths performing dangerous stunts on moving cars in Greater Noida prompted swift action from traffic police. Authorities issued challans totaling Rs 1.21 lakh for violations including dangerous driving and speeding. The incident has been referred for further investigation, with officials emphasizing the risks posed by such reckless behavior to all road users.
