A young man lost his life after an argument broke out between them at a Ramlila pandal in Gurugram in the early hours of Friday, police said.
The incident took place in the Bheem Nagar area when the victim, Ashish (20), who worked with a DJ operator, had gone to watch Ramlila with a friend. The reason behind the altercation was not known immediately, they said.
After receiving information about the incident, a police team reached the spot and rushed Ashish, a resident of Bheem Nagar, to the hospital, where doctors declared him dead, police said.
