    Petrol prices are too high & should come under GST.

    Agree Sir... Me too had a drowning experience even after being quit good swimmer.. in the river near Vangni Estate in Mumbai on weekend office trip.. I was swimming wearing jeans and got exhausted and tired as there was unexpected current flowing downside...my group was far away i could not call them for help.. i was almost drowning due to lack of strength...Miraculously one strange person ( he seem like 20 year old village boy) jumped into and gave his hand just for a 10 Secs and i got all my energy and confident back to swim again to survive...after that i could not find that boy to thank...till the date am thankful to that boy.
    The first stage of drowning usually involves feelings of extreme panic as the person fights to survive...this kind of struggling lets the oxygen in the body run out fast...!one should avoid wearing heavy clothes like jeans while venturing into water.

    Santhu,
    Getting drowned and the experience is known only to those who survive.
    One thing for sure, if we do not know swimming and go under the water, first thing takes place is consuming water before someone comes to a help. I was learning swimming and accidentally lost my breath and drank too much water. Thank God my cousin in the village was with me. I gave up interest permanently. To learn swimming must start at early age.

    Where it is mentioned as effect of Blue whale game?
    Can we presume GST effect?
    That is left to police job.
    I remember the first incident which took place jumping from the bridge in 197o's or so, an young love pair in their teens. After that time so many suicide incidents have taken place from that spot!

    Nethravathi River water looks very horrible and scary from the bridge..One must have guts to jump into that water.
    Drowning is not at all pleasant experience. RIP
