Sources said Kishore Singh (55) and his son Kailash (34) were grazing their cows near the embankment of the Brahmani on Wednesday afternoon when a calf fell into the river. Kishore jumped into the river to rescue the calf but was swept away by the swirling floodwater. His son, who also jumped in to save him, was also feared drowned.
Fire Service personnel, which began a search operation after being informed about the incident, had failed to trace them.
