living as a tenant in a house in Puranpara Batan area of Uttarkhan for the

On Monday (March 10, 2025) afternoon, the plaintiff received news that his 
elder brother had been hit in various parts of his body by unknown persons 
with sharp weapons and left inside his bedroom. 

The local people rescued the victim and took him to a local hospital for
