On Saturday, a group of around 70 people from Srirangapuram village in Kanigiri mandal embarked on a trip to Pakala Beach in Prakasam district for Vinayaka Chavithi and Kolupulu celebrations. The majority of the group were masons working in Hyderabad. As they arrived at the beach in three batches over the course of the day, seven individuals ventured too far into the water and were carried away by powerful waves. The remaining members of the group quickly notified the authorities.
The Singarayakonda police responded promptly, deploying expert swimmers to conduct a rescue operation. Fortunately, three individuals were saved; one is recovering while the other two are hospitalized at RIMS and Aster Ramesh Hospitals in Ongole. The two deceased victims have been identified as Teja, aged 23, and Mahesh, 24. Meanwhile, Vishnu, 17, and Narayana, 32, remain missing. The search efforts are ongoing, with updates expected shortly.
