Sengupta’s sister, who was there, politely asked them to dispose of the waste properly. According to Sengupta, the woman in red claimed there was no dustbin nearby, despite one being just 5 feet away. When a local shopkeeper also asked them to dispose of the trash properly and warned about police fines for littering, the man threw a plastic bag into a nearby valley. The situation quickly escalated, sparking a heated argument.
