A group of five people tragically drowned one after another as they failed to gauge the depth of the water, officials said.
When they didn’t return, worried relatives filed missing reports with local police.
Police personnel and local swimmers fished out the bodies on Monday.
The deceased are identified as Aihtesham Muktar Ansari (20), Rajju alias Ranjana Raut (22), Roshni Chaudhary (32), and her children Mohit (10) and Laxmi (8).
