Secundrabad IAS Aspirant Tania Soni Died in Delhi Coaching Center Flood

Hyderabad: In New Delhi, heavy rains led to sudden flooding in the basement of Rau’s Coaching Center, resulting in the deaths of three IAS aspirants. The victims, identified by Delhi Police, were Tania Soni from Telangana, Shreya Yadav from Uttar Pradesh, and Navin Delvin from Kerala. The students were trapped for over four hours before succumbing to the flood.

Tania Soni, aged 25, had joined the coaching center a year ago with the aspiration of becoming an IAS officer.
