A father and his 11-year-old son died after falling from the 23rd floor while picking flowers for a religious ritual in Greater Noida.

Greater Noida, October 30 (Daily Kiran) : A tragic accident occurred in Greater Noida on the morning of October 30, when a father and his 11-year-old son fell to their deaths from the 23rd floor of the Mahagun Mywoods Society in the Bisrakh police station area. Initial reports indicate that the father and son were picking flowers from their balcony for a religious ritual when the incident happened.

Local police received a call through the PRV on the same day, reporting the fall of two individuals from Tower-23 of the Mahagun Mywoods Society. A police team quickly arrived at the site, where they found Randeep Patra, approximately 40 years old, and his son Aarav in critical condition.
Without delay, the police transported them to a nearby hospital, where doctors pronounced them dead upon arrival. According to statements given to the police, Randeep’s wife mentioned that they were in a hurry to leave for the Khatu Shyam temple that morning. This urgency led them to the balcony to collect flowers for their prayers.
The exact circumstances surrounding the accident will be clarified following a thorough investigation. Preliminary information suggests that after the boy slipped, he dangled dangerously from the balcony. In his attempt to rescue his son, the father lost his own footing, resulting in both plummeting to the ground from such a height. The fall caused severe injuries, and neither could be saved.
The Bisrakh police have initiated the process of sending both bodies for post-mortem after completing the necessary paperwork. Authorities are conducting a detailed investigation into all aspects of the case.
