News India Live, Digital Desk: The shadow of death is now looming on the streets of Lucknow, the city of Nawabs. Despite the ban, Chinese Manjha, which is being sold indiscriminately, has created an uproar in the city. Within the last 24 hours, a revenue inspector and a BJP worker were seriously injured in two separate incidents after being hit by Khooni Manjha. This murderous manja severed the ear of one person and slit the throat of another. After these incidents, there has been a stir in the capital and question marks have been raised on the strictness of the police administration.
Revenue Inspector’s ear cut off, blood flowed on the road The first incident is being reported from Gomti Nagar area, where a Revenue Inspector returning home from duty suddenly got hit by a kite string. Due to the speed of the bike, Manjha went through his face and ears. According to eyewitnesses, the scene was so horrifying that the inspector’s ear got badly cut and hung and blood started flowing on the road. Passersby immediately took him to the nearest hospital, where his condition remains critical.
BJP worker’s throat slit, life narrowly saved The second incident took place near Chowk police station area, where a BJP worker was going on his scooter. Then the Chinese manja hanging from the sky got stuck around his neck. As he tried to save himself, the sharp blade deeply cut the skin on his neck. It was fortunate that he stopped the car in time, otherwise a major accident could have happened. The injured worker was immediately taken to the trauma center, where several stitches were required in his neck.
Even after the ban, Chinese Manja is flying like ‘Yamraj’ Surprisingly, the Uttar Pradesh government and administration have imposed a strict ban on the sale and use of Chinese Manjha. Despite this, this deadly Manjha is being sold indiscriminately in the old areas and dense settlements of Lucknow. Local residents allege that the police take action only on paper, whereas the ground reality is that this bloody thread is ready to take the lives of people at every turn. Now innocent people are having to suffer the consequences of this laxity of the administration.
Police raid and public outrage After these two major incidents, Lucknow Police hastily started raids in many areas. Police claim that kite shops are being checked and strict action like NSA will be taken against those selling banned Manja. However, there is huge anger among the public. People say that until the supply chain is completely ended, such accidents will continue to happen. Now it remains to be seen what concrete steps the administration takes to stop this ‘bloody game’.
