According to sources, some students of the
university went to the dam for picnic to mark
the Easter celebrations when one of them
reportedly decided to swim in the dam and
got drowned. The second student, however,
got drowned while attempting to save the life
of his friend, just as the third victim died
while trying to save the lives of the two
students.
Some residents of the area, however, told
Source that many people had lost their lives
while trying to swim in the dam in the past,
wondering why some people still toyed with
their lives by swimming there.
They called on the state government to enact
a law banning such activities in the dam due
to the tragic incidences which had occurred
there in the past.
