The victim, identified as 24-year-old tea-seller Ashish, was returning home after Holi celebrations with friends when he was attacked.
Delhi to continue past excise policy in financial year 2025-26
The Delhi government is expected to extend its existing excise policy for the financial year 2025-26, as a revised version is yet to be formulated, officials have indicated. With the reins of Delhi now in the hands of the BJP—following its decisive victory over the previously dominant Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in last month’s Assembly elections—the excise portfolio is now overseen by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta. “The new government has yet to make a decision on drafting a fresh excise policy. Given this, the current policy, which was already extended for 2024-25, is likely to remain in place for another year,” a senior Delhi government official stated.
