Indore

Sandeep Nagar, known as Bunty Nagar, a prominent real estate businessman and colonizer, died by suicide in Indore's Palasia area on September 27. Police have begun an investigation into the circumstances of his death. Local coverage notes he was a well-known figure in the city's property market, and further details are expected as the inquiry proceeds.

During the Anant Chaturdashi procession in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, police adopted a technology-driven approach to manage security and monitor the large crowds gathered for the historic tableau and akhada processions. The tech-assisted crowd control effort is being noted as an example of how Indian cities are modernising policing at major religious events.
