The biggest negligence of PRV has come to light in the case of the death of engineer Yuvraj Mehta.

Arvind Mishra, Greater Noida. The claim of Gautam Budh Nagar Commissionerate Police, which boasted of providing help at the fastest speed after the accident, proved to be false. The biggest negligence has come to light in the case of the death of PRV (Police Response Vehicle) engineer Yuvraj Mehta, who was the first responder to the incident.

After receiving information from the control room about a software engineer drowning in the water filled in the plot dug for his basement, two PRPs reached the spot within nine minutes, but they did not even have the necessary resources to save the engineer. It is important for the PRV to always be equipped with the necessary resources to help the injured during an accident.

Instead of helping the engineer, PRV personnel kept calling the fire brigade and SDRF. There was negligence of PRV at the incident site even a month ago. In view of the possibility of an accident, there were instructions to permanently deploy a PRV at the incident site, but when it was checked there a month ago, the PVR was absent.

Taking action, Police Commissioner Lakshmi Singh had suspended the soldiers deployed on PRP. Despite this, negligence was done. Ten days ago, when the truck met with an accident, the PRV was missing from the spot.

The state government makes Gautam Buddha Nagar the face of its development and promotes it in the country and the world. By claiming law and order and international level facilities, the government was successful in garnering maximum investment in the district in the Global Investor Summit. But Yuvraj's death made it clear that these claims are only on paper. Yuvraj Mehta's death has exposed the layers of these claims.

After drowning along with the car in the water filled in the plot dug for the basement, at 12:20 in the night, Yuvraj somehow gathered courage and called his father and asked for help. The father informed the police control room at 12:25 and requested to save his son. At 12:41, the control room informed the station in-charge and PRV about the incident and asked them to reach for help.

Two PRVs reached the spot within nine minutes, by which time the engineer had been under water for more than twenty minutes. Was constantly waiting for help to save himself. The hope of help that arose after the arrival of PVR was dashed within seconds when it was revealed that PRV had reached the spot merely for formality.

It doesn't even have any resources for rescue. Seeing the situation at the spot, instead of helping the engineer, the PRV personnel themselves started calling the fire brigade for help. But they also did not have the resources for rescue. Even after the rescue team was mobilized, the engineer could not be saved from death.
