Lucknow: A property dispute in Balrampur has resulted in the deaths of two men following a violent altercation . On Saturday, a confrontation between Shyam Kumar (38) and Bindu Lal (39) over land escalated into violence, ultimately killing both men. According to police reports, the dispute occurred around 11am in Kanchanpur village, located under the gram panchayat of Badka Bhukurua.
During the altercation, Shyam sustained severe injuries to his head and back. He was initially treated at the Pachpedwa community health centre (CHC), where Dr Vijay Kumar confirmed that Shyam was brought in unconscious. Shyam was referred to the district hospital but died on the way.
