In a tragic incident on May 3, a five-year-old boy died in northeast Delhi's Usmanpur area after a piece of banned 'Chinese manjha' slashed his neck while he was traveling on a motorcycle with his family. The sharp, glass-coated kite string became entangled around the child's neck, resulting in a severe injury. He was quickly taken to a nearby hospital but unfortunately succumbed to his injuries during treatment. Authorities have initiated an investigation to determine the source of the Chinese manjha and to identify individuals involved in its sale and distribution. The use, sale, and storage of this synthetic string, which poses significant risks to human life and wildlife, have been prohibited in Delhi. However, incidents related to Chinese manjha continue to be reported across the city, highlighting ongoing safety concerns.
