Teacher killed by banned Chinese 'manjha' in Jaunpur

  • A 40-year-old private school teacher, Sanjeev Tiwari, died in Jaunpur, UP, after his neck was slit by banned Chinese kite string while riding his motorcycle.
  • The incident occurred around 8 am on Thursday on Shastri Bridge, shortly after Tiwari dropped his daughter at school.
  • He lost control of his motorcycle and collapsed, later being declared dead at the district hospital.
  • Residents are demanding strict action and an enforcement drive to curb the sale of banned Chinese 'manjha' (kite string coated with powdered glass).
