<p>A four-year-old boy died after an open gym equipment installed at a park in the Moti Nagar area in west Delhi fell on his chest, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/youth-lynched-policeman-injured-in-group-clash-in-bihar-23410978" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong>police</strong></a> said on Monday.</p>
<p>The deceased has been identified as Master Arvind, whose father works as a labourer in Saudi Arabia while his mother is a housewife, they added.</p>
<p>"A call was received at the Moti Nagar police station on Sunday about a child pronounced dead on arrival at the Acharya Shree Bhikshu Hospital," Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Vichitra Veer said.</p>
<p>An inquiry into the matter revealed that the child was playing at a park in Moti Nagar A Block which has an open gymnasium when an equipment fell on his chest, leaving him unconscious, the DCP said.</p>
<p>The child was immediately rushed to the hospital where he was declared dead by the doctors, he added.</p>
<p>The police have taken up the probe after registering a case of negligence, the officer said.</p>
<p>As per the website of the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), open gyms have been installed at around 342 parks across the national capital.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Delhi BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj claimed that the child died after a swing collapsed in the park, as she attributed the incident to negligence on the part of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).</p>
<p>Seeking adequate compensation for the deceased's family, Swaraj claimed that a similar incident took place in the same area last year, which clearly shows poor maintenance of the MCD parks.</p>
