Noida Techie's Tragic End: 90-Minute Fight for Life in Unsecured Pit

  • Yuvraj Mehta, a 27-year-old software engineer, died after his SUV plunged into a 20-foot-deep, water-filled pit in Greater Noida's Sector 150.
  • Mehta struggled for 90 minutes, flashing his phone's torch and crying for help, while his father watched helplessly nearby.
  • The accident occurred due to dense fog and poor visibility, with his Grand Vitara breaking through a damaged boundary wall near ATS Le Grandiose society.
  • The excavation site, dug for a commercial project, lacked barricades, fencing, reflectors, or warning lights, making it extremely dangerous.
  • Rescue efforts were delayed and criticized for poor handling; Mehta's body was recovered nearly four hours after his cries ceased.
