The Story in Brief
A speeding Mahindra Thar rammed a police motorcycle in Ghaziabad on Wednesday evening, killing a Home Guard jawan.

The impact killed Kapil Kumar on the spot. NDTV reports that the driver of the Thar has been arrested.

Accidents involving rash driving are routinely reported, but the death of a Home Guard jawan on duty underscores a recurring failure to protect first responders. The narrative often blames the driver alone, yet the absence of basic protective gear and safe roadside protocols for police personnel deserves equal scrutiny. The question is: will the local administration enforce traffic laws consistently or wait for another such tragedy before acting?
