A five-year-old boy died of electrocution and two minors sustained injuries after they came in contact with a live electric wire in South Delhi’s Neb Sarai, the police said on Thursday.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Atul Thakur said that the deceased and the injured boys, aged five and six respectively, are residents of a slum cluster in Khanpur.
The police said that they were playing near the slum cluster when they came in contact with the live wire on Wednesday. “The three boys were rushed to Max Hospital where the five-year-old boy was declared brought dead while the two others are undergoing treatment. They are stated to be out of danger, he said.

Bangladesh is witnessing renewed political tension after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a young leader who emerged during the July–August 2024 uprising that led to the removal of Sheikh Hasina. Hadi later headed the radical group Inquilab Mancha and was campaigning ahead of the 2026 parliamentary election when he was shot in Dhaka. His death has triggered protests, diplomatic friction with India, and concerns over rising political violence as Bangladesh heads towards elections under an interim government.
