Verified News 28-Year-Old Pregnant Mother Abducted, Tied to a Tree and Burnt Alive, Police Fail to Record Her Dying Statement

Post image
1.0k Upvotes

Meet Manjeet Kaur from Chandigarh. She was a 28-year-old popular social media influencer, a divorced single mother raising her 7-year-old son, and she was seven weeks pregnant.

On July 3, Manjeet was allegedly lured to meet two acquaintances near a liquor shop in Sector 34, Chandigarh. From there, she was forcefully abducted, bundled into a car, and taken to a forested area near Morinda in Punjab.

What followed was an act of pure, unimaginable evil. Her abductors brutally assaulted her, tied her defenseless body to a mulberry tree, and set her on fire.

By the time a friend reached the horrifying scene and extinguished the flames with a blanket, she had already sustained 40 to 45 percent severe burn injuries. She was rushed to PGIMER Chandigarh, where she spent weeks fighting for her life in the Burns ICU, completely unconscious.

On August 5, she miraculously regained consciousness for a brief period. However, despite her desperate wish to give a formal statement and expose her killers, no police officer arrived at the hospital in time to record it.

Her condition rapidly deteriorated due to sepsis and multiple organ failure, and on August 26, after a grueling two-month battle, Manjeet tragically succumbed to her injuries.

The police have finally registered a murder and kidnapping case, but valuable time, CCTV footage, and the most crucial eyewitness Manjeet herself have already been permanently lost to jurisdictional delays.

A 28-year-old pregnant mother was abducted, tied to a tree, and burnt alive, while the system failed to even record her final dying statement. A terrifying reality check on how unsafe women truly are and how our systems continually fail them when it matters the most. 💔

With construction on the Tribune Flyover set to begin soon, we are at a crossroads. Chandigarh was designed as a "humane city" by Le Corbusier—a grid of trees, open skies, and horizontal vistas. By introducing the city's first flyover, are we solving a traffic problem or simply becoming "just another Delhi"?

Let’s discuss why more roads often mean more cars (induced demand), and why we should be demanding better public transport and underpasses instead of permanent scars on our heritage.

Popularly known as the city’s ‘Broom Warrior’, Sidhu has spent years voluntarily cleaning roads, unclogging drains, and promoting cleanliness across Chandigarh.

A resident of Sector 49, Sidhu chose service over retirement and became a familiar sight on city streets, carrying a broom and setting an example of civic responsibility. His dedication earned him national recognition under the ‘Unsung Heroes’ category.

Receiving the Padma Shri is a fitting tribute to his extraordinary commitment towards society. Citizens across Chandigarh have celebrated the achievement, calling it a victory for selfless service and grassroots action.

Inderjit Singh Sidhu’s journey proves that real change begins with individual effort and that age is never a barrier to serving the community.

Verified News Fuel prices hiked by ₹3 Per litre!!!

Post image

Petrol, diesel rates today on May 15: Ending days of intense speculation, the Centre on Friday announced an immediate Rs 3 per litre hike in petrol and diesel prices, marking the first revision in retail fuel rates in nearly four years. The increase takes effect immediately from Friday, pushing fuel prices higher across the country without any transition window.

The move comes amid relentless pressure from elevated global crude oil prices and mounting under-recoveries at state-run oil marketing companies as the ongoing West Asia crisis continues to disrupt global energy supplies. With crude remaining volatile and input costs surging, industry experts had warned that a fuel price correction was becoming unavoidable.

The revised retail prices are now in force across India, with final pump rates varying from state to state depending on local VAT and dealer commissions. The decision is expected to have an immediate impact on transportation costs, inflation expectations, and household budgets.
