On January 14th, some people in Telangana India got hurt during Makar Sankranti celebrations. It seems they were injured by kite string. One guy, a police officer, got a cut on his throat while riding his bike. This happened in Hyderabad and he had to go to the hospital but is ok now.
Another person, a man in his 30s, also got hurt by kite string in a different part of Telangana. He ended up in the hospital too. These accidents happened during a festival where lots of people fly kites which makes people worried about the kind of string being used.
Because of these injuries the local police are looking into where this kind of dangerous kite string is coming from. They want to figure out how to stop this from happening again and make sure these types of accidents stop happening.
