18 Oct
Summary
- Five family members died at their Greater Noida home.
- Noodles were consumed the night before the deaths.

Tragedy struck in Greater Noida's Nagla Shri Padam village on Saturday morning when five members of a family were found dead in their home. The deceased included a couple and their three young children. An elderly mother, who lived with them, was the sole survivor as she had not consumed the evening meal.
