Bulandshahr: An Indian Air Force officer and his father were allegedly attacked by members of a wedding procession in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, after they objected to alleged public drinking and road blockage.
The incident occurred in Amargarh village under the Jahangirabad police station limits.
Argument Over Road Block Turns Violent
Pratham Singh, posted with the Indian Air Force, was returning from a family function with his father, Jitendra Singh, a primary school principal. According to the complaint, a wedding procession was moving along the Jahangirabad road with loud music and a traditional ‘ghudchadhi’ ceremony in progress.
The father and son alleged that several members of the procession were drinking alcohol and dancing in the middle of the road, leading to a traffic jam. When Jitendra Singh honked to request passage, an argument broke out.
The situation reportedly escalated after the duo objected to alleged verbal abuse. The accused allegedly assaulted them with sticks and iron rods, leaving both seriously injured.

The victims were first taken to a nearby hospital and later referred to the district hospital for further treatment. They also claimed that a wristwatch and a gold chain went missing during the assault.
