Men were killed by lightning at the old secretariat

Ahmedabad: A 57-year-old man from sector 6 in Gandhinagar died after being shocked by lighting when he stood under the Neem tree outside the old secretariat canteen in the 10-A sector on Tuesday afternoon.
Rajnikan Dulera, a peon with the Gandhinagar District Panchayat office in Sector-17, went to send a letter to the old secretariat and then went to the canteen for drinks, said Inspector Dharmendra Chaudhari from the Sector Police-7.
Riberikan Dulalacaudhari said that when he left, it was raining, so he stood under the Neem tree outside the canteen in block number 11, waiting for the rain to stop.
Lightning then hit him and he fainted there himself.
Some workers from the old secretariat rushed to him and found him unconscious, called an ambulance.
He was taken to Gandhinagar civil hospital where he was declared dead.
“Prima facie, it seems he suffered a massive heart attack because of lightning and this might be the cause of his death,” Chaudhary said.
He said his wife, Ramila Dulera, was a peon in the District Employment Office and they had two children, 23 and 21.
