Mangaluru, Mar 29: Two student friends, who went to the water tank at 35 feet height at Tagore Park and sat there chatting, did not know the tension they created for the people and police personnel on Monday evening March 28.

The people, in the park on Light House Hill Road, who spotted the students phoned the police. Bunder police inspector Shantharam, PSI Madan and police personnel rushed to the spot within minutes and took measures to bring the duo down.

PSI Madan himself climbed the ladder and told the students convincingly to come down.

Harshesh (21) and Supriya (21) are the students who were the ‘adventurers’. They later told that they climbed up by the ladder to see the beautiful scenery of the city from the water tank. They walked around the tank for a while and after that sat chatting without knowing the panic they created at the park. As many unpleasant incidents are reported these days, the people were indeed worried to see two persons on the tank.

Police registered the case for their behaviour and for visiting the tank without permission and warned the duo.

Both the students study final year engineering at NITK at Suratkal.
