About seven individuals were also injured in the chaotic attack, one of whom, Gajender, is under care at the ICU of AIIMS-Delhi and is critical, according to a PTI report.

The group of youths had come to the farmhouse to celebrate a birthday party, and got into a fight with some locals over parking. 

At approximately 11:30 pm, a group of individuals arranged for a cab to transport them home. During this period, four youths, reportedly under the influence of alcohol, arrived at the farmhouse in a car from the nearby Bandhwari village. A confrontation ensued between the two groups, leading to a physical altercation.
