  "summary": "Two migrant workers, Devender from Madhya Pradesh and Manasar from Chhattisgarh, were killed in a tractor-mounted borewell drilling rig accident in Kerala on Saturday. The accident occurred around 2 am when the tractor reportedly lost control while descending a steep slope and overturned onto a house in Varakkad, Kasaragod’s West Eleri. The family inside the house escaped unharmed, but the injured workers were taken to a hospital and later declared dead. Separately, in political news, a Kerala Police FIR has been filed against CPI(M) MLA V Joy and former minister Kadakampally Surendran for allegedly threatening police officers during a protest march in Thiruvananthapuram. Additionally, thousands protested in Mumbai and Delhi over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, with Delhi Police detaining around 550 protesters, including AAP leaders and RJD MP Manoj Jha.",
