Tragic End

Venkata Chandu (15) and Venkata Nanda Kishore (13) didn't know the meaning of the sign, "Danger: Deep Waters." On Monday afternoon, the brothers, who were visiting relatives in Sangam, decided to venture into the Kanigiri reservoir for a spot of leisure swimming. But, alas, the current proved too strong and the depth too considerable. The brothers, residents of NTPS Colony, near Chinnapadugupadu in Kovur Mandal, were swept away within minutes of entering the water.

Local residents, who knew the boys, watched in horror as the brothers disappeared beneath the waters. They attempted a rescue but were too late. The bodies were retrieved by the local police from the Kanigiri reservoir later. A case has been registered and the brothers have been shifted for post-mortem.

Alas, two young lives have been wasted due to mere ignorance and a moment of indiscretion! Let this serve as a warning to all who dare to challenge nature and its perils!
