Patna:

Retired IPS officer Acharya Kishore Kunal died of cardiac arrest in Patna on Sunday, his family said. An IPS officer of the 1972 batch, he was the chief of the Bihar State Board of Religious Trust (BSBRT).

Kunal, 74, suffered cardiac arrest in the morning and was immediately taken to a hospital where he passed away, his family said.

He was also the secretary of the Mahavir Mandir Trust, which runs several hospitals in the state.

Condoling his death, Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary said his life was dedicated to social service, religious and cultural upliftment.

“He gave Mahavir Mandir a national identity and did unprecedented work for the upliftment of the weaker sections of the society. His contribution is difficult to express in words. His demise is an irreparable loss to society. I pray to God to give peace to the departed soul and strength to his family to bear this grief,” Choudhary said.

New Delhi:

A video of a fight between a bank manager and a customer at a Union Bank in Ahmedabad has gone viral. Jaiman Rawal, the customer, was reportedly disappointed over the increased tax deduction on a fixed deposit. The argument between the customer and the bank manager broke into a nasty fight.

In a 43-second-long viral video, the two men are seen holding each other by the collar. The customer then slaps the bank employee on his head. In the video, a woman can be heard asking her colleague Shubham to let it go.

In the background an elderly woman, who appears to be the customer’s mother is seen trying to resolve the dispute, holding the arm of either of the two, pulling them away. She even slaps the customer, presumably her son, asking him to stop it.

When the two are finally pulled away, the customer again attacks, this time another bank employee.

The incident is reportedly from the Union Bank’s branch in Vastrapur, Ahmedabad.

Vastrapur police have registered a case and the probe is underway.

In a video, a man is seen walking toward a woman, he points a finger at her, almost shoving it in her face. He then snatches the phone from her and throws it on the ground. “You will record this and embarrass me”, he asks.

The man returns the phone to the woman and walks back to a nearby chair. He sits and threatens the woman. “No one will support you. Fix my CIBIL score. See what I do to you in your cabin. You don’t know who you are dealing with. You have done wrong to me,” he says.

The police are investigating the case.
