A somber atmosphere envelops Rajasthan following the tragic deaths of six teenagers who drowned in the Parvati River across two separate incidents. The victims' bodies were gradually recovered, underscoring the perilous nature of the river, prompting calls for increased safety measures.
The first incident saw four teenagers, Sonu Suman, Mohit Suman, Ashfaque, and Ayush Gurjar, aged 16 to 17, slip into the river's depths during a visit to Chuara Dham. Their excursion turned fatal as three ran for help. An intensive search ensued, aided by SDRF and NDRF teams, resulting in the eventual recovery of all bodies.
A second tragedy struck in the Atru area, claiming two more lives. While swimming under a bridge, a powerful current swept away five boys. Although three reached safety, Vishal and Subhan Mohammed could not, leading to a painstaking recovery operation early Monday. Authorities urge enhanced vigilance near water sources.
