    I am sad for the incident. Over smartness shown by some when in a group leads to such mishaps. All should be very very careful when venturing into river or sea especially during monsoon.

    We can never understand why people venture into unpredictable waters... It really feels sad when we loose people like this... So many tourists make the same mistake in Malpe beach... Let us hope and pray that he is saved by providence....
