In Bulandshahr, wedding guests brutally beat an Air Force soldier, video goes viral

In Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, a soldier from the Indian Air Force and his father were severely beaten by a group of men after a dispute over honking their car during a wedding procession.

In a shocking incident in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, an Air Force soldier named Pratham and his father Jitendra Singh were brutally attacked by a group of intoxicated men while returning home after a wedding engagement. The altercation occurred on the Amargadh-Jahangirabad road when Jitendra honked their car to request passage through the blocked road due to a wedding procession. Instead of accommodating them, the men reacted aggressively, leading to a violent confrontation.

According to reports, Jitendra Singh, who is a government teacher, was driving home with his son when the wedding procession of a youth named Akash Sharma was taking place. The procession was causing a traffic jam as young men danced to the DJ's music. Frustrated by the delay, Jitendra's honking initiated a verbal altercation with the men, who soon escalated to physical violence. Witnesses noted that the attackers were under the influence of alcohol, wielding iron rods and sticks, prompting a vicious assault.

This incident has sparked outrage on social media, particularly after a video of the attack went viral, highlighting issues of public safety and the audacity of such violent behavior in public spaces. The police are reportedly investigating the circumstances surrounding the attack while calls for justice grow louder, reflecting broader concerns about the safety of citizens in India, especially when faced with such brazen acts of aggression.
