While riding his bike, his neck came into contact with a sharp Chinese manjha. Despite wearing a helmet, he suffered severe injuries.

In a recent post on X, a doctor stated that the physiotherapist’s neck was slit by a Chinese manjha while he was riding his motorcycle in the Line Bazaar area of Jaunpur, highlighting the dangers posed by illegal kite strings.
Local residents have alleged that the police and administration have failed to curb the sale of banned manjha in the district effectively. Just a few weeks ago, a teacher lost his life in a similar incident while returning home after dropping his daughter off at school.
The physiotherapist’s death has sent shockwaves through the area, with residents expressing anger and fear over the increasing frequency of such incidents. They warned that the unchecked use of banned manjha poses a serious threat to public safety and demands urgent administrative intervention.
