Infant Dies After Loud DJ Music During Procession Near Home in Uttar Pradesh
In Ballia district, Uttar Pradesh, a 20-day-old infant girl died after a procession with loud DJ music passed near her home. The family alleged that despite repeated requests to lower the volume or move the DJ vehicle, the music continued at high levels, which they claim caused the infant's heartbeat to stop. Police have registered a case, seized the DJ equipment, and sent the body for post-mortem examination. Further legal action will depend on the investigation's findings.
