A violent land dispute in Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad, located near the national capital Delhi, turned fatal on Thursday, resulting in the death of a 22-year-old youth. The victim, identified as Ayush, lost his life during a bloody clash marked by heavy stone-pelting and gunfire between two opposing factions over the possession of a plot. Ayush was associated with the Hindu Raksha Dal and was known to be a friend of Harsh चौधरी, the son of the outfit's national president Pinki चौधरी. The incident has once again brought to light the violent flashpoints often associated with property and land conflicts in the region.

According to details surrounding the case, a large green belt is situated adjacent to the disputed plot, which had been the subject of a long-standing feud between Pinki चौधरी and the neighboring plot owner Namita Sharma. On the fateful evening, construction work involving the laying of a foundation was underway at the plot. As the work progressed, individuals from both rival sides confronted each other, and the verbal confrontation quickly escalated into a violent and bloody confrontation.
