In a tragic incident in Tamil Nadu’s Vellore, a man and his daughter died after their e-bike went up in flames suffocating them to death in their asbestos sheet-laden house in the wee hours on Saturday, March 26.
He plugged the charger of his bike into an old socket in the entrance of his house and went to sleep on Friday night.
A unit of firefighters reached the spot from Vellore and put out the flames and local people entered the house breaking open the front door.
Local people said that his daughter had visited her father after several months as she was staying at a relative’s place at Thiruvannamalai to get a better education.
