Three lives were lost on Thursday in separate incidents of drowning in Assam.

In the first incident that took place at Chanda village in Assam’s Mukalmua, a woman named Nilima Talukdar lost her life after accidentally falling into a nearby pond.

The incident occurred when she was near the water body.

Another distressing incident unfolded at Simlaguri in Dotoma, Kokrajhar, where two brothers, Phile Narzary and Kunal Narzary, met a tragic fate while bathing.

The siblings succumbed to death after they drowned in a pond during their bathing session.

These incidents serve as a reminder of the dangers associated with water bodies and the importance of practicing caution when near them.

Earlier on Wednesday, two minor sisters drowned while taking an afternoon bath in a pond at Kaliabor in Assam’s Nagaon district. 

The incident occurred at Kellyden tea estate located near Lagunbasti Adarsh village.

Sources said that the two minor sisters went for a bath and didn’t return home since. 

After a prolonged search by locals, the lifeless bodies of the two sisters were recovered from the pond.
