Jaipur: A couple from Rajasthan had a miraculous escape after they got stuck in a gushing waterfall during their pre-wedding photoshoot on Tuesday. They were finally rescued after an extensive exercise lasting around three hours.
Their wedding is taking place on December 1.
The incident was reported from the Rawatbhata area in Chittorgarh when the would-be couple got surrounded by gushing waters at the Chulia Falls. The photographer somehow managed to get out and informed the police. The police and the civil defence team pulled out the couple and two others following a rescue operation that lasted almost three hours, IANS reported.
“The gates of Rana Pratap Sagar Dam were opened on Tuesday morning. As a result, the flow of water intensified in Chulia Falls when Ashish Gupta (29) from Kota and his would be bride Shikha (27) reached the rocks for a pre-wedding shoot. They were accompanied by their friend Himanshu (22) and the girl’s niece Milan (18). All four of them went into the water,” said the SHO of the area, Rajaram Gurjar was quoted as saying.
As the couple and their friends were clicking pictures sitting on the rocks, the water level started rising. The terrorised photographer asked them to come out of the water, but they did not listen to him. The photographer somehow got out, but his camera fell into the water. All four were trapped in high tide. The photographer informed the police as soon as he came out of the water.
