India witnessed a wave of disturbing incidents across multiple states. In Jammu & Kashmir’s Handwara, Pakistan violated the ceasefire at the LoC, triggering heavy exchange of fire with the Indian Army. Tensions remain high on the border. In Lucknow’s Plassio Mall, a violent clash broke out between security guards and a group of youths. Sticks, fists, and chaos ruled the scene as the fight escalated into a full-blown brawl. Police are investigating based on viral video footage. In UP’s Basti, a fire caused by a short circuit at a sweet shop led to a series of seven gas cylinder explosions, engulfing the house in flames. Thankfully, the family escaped, but the property was completely destroyed. In Chhattisgarh’s Bilaspur, a speeding car hit two young women walking roadside. One suffered serious injuries after the driver — allegedly distracted on the phone — lost control.
