Delhi Sisters Blow Horn Non-Stop, Ram Car Into Neighbours Who Called Cops

The incident has taken place at Anekant Apartments in east Delhi's Vasundhara Enclave
New Delhi: 

Two troublemaker sisters living at a residential complex in east Delhi's Vasundhara Enclave were arrested after high drama on Friday, during which they threatened an elderly man, locked themselves in for hours and then drove their car rashly inside the campus, injuring people and damaging vehicles. Visuals captured by CCTV cameras in the residential complex show the car ramming several people, including cops. 

Bhavya Jain and Charvi Jain, who allegedly assaulted a security guard of Anekant Apartments a month back, were blowing their car horn non-stop late on Friday night. Ashok Sharma, a 70-year-old retired police officer living in the complex, asked them to stop. They responded by damaging Mr Sharma's flower pots. They then entered his home and threatened him with a knife.

Police were called in and by the time, they arrived, the sisters locked them inside their flat for hours. When they came out, they got into their car and drove rashly inside the society, damaging parked vehicles and injuring people. They hit a police vehicle and broke through the barrier at the gates of the residential society. This started a chase as the cops followed the car. The sisters also hit a scooterist standing on the road outside the residential complex. While the rider escaped, the sisters in their car dragged the scooter for quite some distance. Police eventually intercepted them at Noida Sector 20 and took them into custody.

Joginder, the scooterist, said he was standing with his scooter outside the apartment complex when the speeding car with the sisters in it hit the two-wheeler and dragged it.

Pradeep Chaurasia, the electrician of Anekant Apartments, was among those injured. "One of the sisters looked at all of us, got into the car and started driving. They were at a very high speed. My hand was injured," he said. CCTV footage shows some people running behind the car with sticks, apparently in an effort to stop it, but the vehicles keeps speeding and hitting cars. 

Bhavya is 23 and Charvi is 21. They are graduates, but do not work. They stay with their mother, who has been suffering from cancer and is undergoing treatment at the nearby Dharamshila Narayana Hospital. Their father Neeraj Jain runs a printing press and lives in Paharganj. Earlier, in September, the sisters were charged in a case of wrongful confinement and causing hurt after they allegedly beat up a security guard working at the residential complex.

The sisters had asked guard Akhilesh Kumar to visit their place because of a tapwater issue. When he said he would send a plumber instead, they insisted that he visit. When he went, he was beaten up and also burnt using a steam iron, Akhilesh alleged. He said that the sisters suspected him of sharing information about them with their father. Police had been called in but the sisters locked them up and did not let the cops enter their home. A case was subsequently registered.

    While some may argue that people in Delhi are now more aware of air pollution than they were a decade back, my rebuttal would be that awareness does not mean that people are concerned.

    हमारी हवा जहरीली हो रही है. गुरुवार की शाम को जब मैं इस मुद्दे पर लिखने बैठी तो AQI लगातार 400 पार  जाकर दम घोंट रहा था. बहुत लोगों को यह मामला बोरिंग लगे, लेकिन जब आप अपने साथ काम करने वालों को खांसते-हांफते देखते-सुनते हैं, तो चिंता होने लगती है. सुबह उठते ही दरवाजे खिड़कियां खोलने के लिए डॉक्टर मना कर रहे हैं. बड़े बुजुर्गों के लिए तो मॉर्निंग वॉक बाहर की दुनिया से सीधे संपर्क का ज़रिया है, लेकिन डॉक्टर इसकी भी मनाही कर रहे हैं.
