: A man was killed and another injured after their motorcycle fell off the Salimgarh flyover in central Delhi on Sunday.

The deceased has been identified as Bhuvneshwar Upadhyay (28). His cousin Vikas Lavania (23) was riding pillion.

According to the police, Bhuvneshwar was speeding in dense fog. While negotiating a turn, he couldn’t see the wall of the flyover, and his bike rammed it. They then fell off the flyover.
