Uttar Pradesh Government Orders SIT Probe into Noida Road Accident
On the Chief Minister’s directions, a three-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been constituted to inquire into the circumstances leading to the accident in Sector 150, where the techie’s car plunged into a water-filled pit at a construction site two days ago, a senior official said.
The SIT will be headed by the Additional Director General (ADG), Meerut Zone. The Meerut divisional commissioner and the chief engineer of the Public Works Department (PWD) have also been included as members of the panel, the officer added.
“The team has been asked to conduct a detailed investigation and submit its report to the Chief Minister within five days,” according to an official statement.
Yuvraj Mehta, a 27-year-old software engineer, died after his car plunged into a water-filled pit at an under-construction site while returning to his home in Noida’s Sector 150 amid dense fog in the early hours of Saturday.
The incident triggered allegations of negligence and rescue delays, protests by residents, and an FIR against real estate developers, with the Noida Police now probing the matter of death due to negligence.
His father Raj Kumar Mehta alleged negligence by local authorities and demanded that accountability be set in this case so that “no one else loses their son like this” in future.
The apex court on May 22, 2025, directed that the exclusive custody of the child was given to the mother for three days in a week — Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday — and for the remaining days, the child was directed to remain in the exclusive custody of his father.
In a related development, the Uttar Pradesh government on Monday removed IAS officer Lokesh M from the post of Noida Authority as its chief executive officer and put him on a waitlist, according to an official order.
