|December 12, 2024
IN a tragic incident, four 15-year-old girl students were washed away at Murdeshwar Beach in Uttara Kannada district on Tuesday evening.
Bodies of all four girls, who were all studying in Class 9, were fished out on Wednesday. The deceased—Diksha, Lavanya, Vandana, and Shravanthi—were all students of Morarji Desai Residential School in Mulbagal taluk of Kolar district.
The victims had come to Murdeshwar on Tuesday along with other students and teachers. The students had entered the shore in the evening, and during a photoshoot, a large wave hit the group. The shore was crowded on Tuesday, and there were at least 600 people on the beach. The beach has just four lifeguards, and despite warnings, the school children ventured to the beach.
