Bhadrak: In a tragic incident, two friends drowned in a pond while one was going to rescue the other in Odisha’s Bhadrak district on Saturday.
The deceased have been identified as Kamal Lochan Mallick and Mukesh Giri of Shyampur village under Dhamnagar Notified Area Council (NAC). Both were students of Class X.
According to sources, three friends including Kamal and Mukesh had gone to take bath in the pond near a temple in the village in the afternoon. While Kamal first went into the pond, the other two were standing on the banks.
