A student from Amity University drowned in a rainwater-filled pit in Noida’s Sector 94, and now the police are digging into what really happened.
This all started when four students decided to enjoy a post-exam picnic on an empty plot in Sector 94. The place wasn’t what you’d call welcoming; a deep pit had formed after heavy rains, filling up with water.

As the news broke, police, fire crews, and both SDRF and NDRF teams rushed to the scene. They worked fast, but only three students made it out alive.
