The conflict escalated when Gaurav, who reportedly owned both a BMW and a Fortuner, insisted on parking his second vehicle despite limited space that allowed only one car per tenant. The argument intensified late at night, leading to a violent confrontation.

During the altercation, Gaurav allegedly opened fire at Pankaj. He was immediately rushed to a hospital but succumbed to his injuries during treatment. Paras also sustained injuries in the scuffle and was treated at a hospital.

Police sources revealed that Gaurav Sharma was a tenant on the upper ground floor, while Pankaj’s family resided on the second floor. The dispute over parking had reportedly been ongoing for several days before turning fatal.

After the incident, the accused fled the scene along with his associates. Delhi Police have launched a manhunt and are scanning CCTV footage from the area to trace him.

Investigators are also probing whether the crime was premeditated or a result of sudden rage during the altercation. Further investigation is underway.

Delhi CM Rekha Gupta Pulls Up Officials Over Dirty Drain, Orders Immediate Clean-Up

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta expressed strong displeasure over the poor condition of a drain during an inspection, questioning officials on the lack of desilting and maintenance despite repeated claims of work being carried out.

During the site visit, the Chief Minister pointed to the filthy drain, damaged walls, and incomplete covering, asking officials how long it had been since the drain was last cleaned. She criticised the reliance on data and reports, saying that showing figures without ground-level improvement was unacceptable.

Gupta questioned whether such conditions reflected the development being claimed in Delhi, stating that crores of rupees were being spent but the results were not visible on the ground. She said officials should feel accountable for the current state of civic infrastructure.

Directing immediate action, the CM ordered deployment of machinery on the same day to clear the drain and remove accumulated waste. She also instructed officials to ensure proper covering of the drain and improve the overall condition of the area.

She further emphasised that infrastructure projects such as junction development must include proper drainage and cleanliness planning, and not be limited to cosmetic upgrades.

The Chief Minister’s remarks underline the government’s push for stricter accountability and visible results in civic works across the capital.

Delhi HC Rejects Arvind Kejriwal’s Plea to Transfer Liquor Policy Case, Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma to Continue Hearing

New Delhi: In a major setback to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the Delhi High Court has rejected his plea seeking transfer of the excise policy (liquor case) hearing from Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma.

Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma dismissed the petition and refused to recuse herself from the case, asserting that justice must remain impartial and fearless. She stated that she would continue to hear the matter and deliver judgment without any bias.

Kejriwal had argued in his petition that there were apprehensions regarding the judge’s impartiality, citing alleged associations. During the hearing, he personally presented his arguments before the court. However, the judge ruled that such claims were unfounded and did not warrant her withdrawal from the case.

In her observations, Justice Sharma noted that allowing such pleas could set a wrong precedent, where litigants might attempt to change judges based on unfounded allegations. She emphasised that in her 34 years of judicial service, no allegations of bias had ever been proven against her.

The court also highlighted that recusal in such circumstances would create a “win-win situation” for the petitioner—either reinforcing allegations if the judge steps aside or questioning the verdict if she continues. The judge made it clear that such considerations would not influence the judicial process.

Earlier, investigating agencies had also opposed the plea, stating that permitting such requests would encourage misuse of the legal system.

With the plea dismissed, the case will continue to be heard by Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma, with further proceedings expected in the coming days.
