Delhi Crime: A partially decomposed body of a 32-year-old helper was found inside a bus in northeast Delhi’s Nand Nagri area on Monday, police said.

A caller rang Nand Nagri Police Station at 7.52 am, complaining about a foul smell and blood emanating from a tourist bus parked at the bus stand.

The bus was empty and police found the body of a man, who was later identified as Shiva, a resident of Pushta, Gamri. Shiva was lying face down in the front bus steps.

“The body was in a partially decomposed state and a head injury was visible. The bus cabin was locked from inside. Prima facie, it appears to be a case of accidental fall,” a police officer said.

The body was taken to the GTB Hospital mortuary for post-mortem to ascertain the exact cause of death, the officer added.

Police are examining CCTV footage from the vicinity.

Delhi: Forced labour continues to imperil children

Delhi: Child labour remains a disturbing reality in the national capital, with multiple incidents surfacing regularly. Even as we mark the 14th World Day Against Child Labour, Delhi has not managed to rid itself of the chains that continue to bind its children—forcing many into odd jobs for survival. In 2024, authorities in Delhi rescued 1,170 children in nearly 100 cases of child labour and trafficking. This marked a slight decline from 1,257 children rescued in 126 cases in 2023. These minors, often found working in hazardous conditions for minimal pay, endured long hours of exploitative labour—underlining the continuing crisis of child exploitation in India’s capital.

Delhi weather: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted very hot weather for the national capital on Monday, with temperatures soaring to 44 degrees Celsius. The day began with a temperature of 27.6 degrees Celsius early morning, signaling a hot and uncomfortable day ahead. According to the IMD, temperatures are likely to rise even further over the next three days, potentially reaching 45 degrees Celsius. A yellow alert has been issued for “hot and humid” conditions expected to persist across the city for at least four more days.
