Kundapur: In a tragic incident reported from Amasebail village, a 23-year-old girl died of drowning after slipping and falling into the waters of an embankment in the village on Thursday, when she was getting fodder for the cattle.
The deceased girl, Mookambika, was the daughter of Sanjeeva Naik and Narasi, residents of Jambehadi in Jaddinagadde.
Mookambika, who worked in a petrol bunk, had her shift in the afternoon. In the morning, she went out with her sister-in-law Ashwini to the field to get fodder for the cattle. When Ashwini returned home with the bundle, she found that Mookambika, who had been walking behind her, was missing. She went back on the route looking for Mookambika and found her sickle lying on the bank of the embankment. When the other members of the family rushed to the spot and looked for Mookambika, they found her body in the waters of the embankment.
Mookambika is currently suspected to have accidentally fallen into the waters as she was treading the verge of the embankment amid rain and strong wind while returning home with the fodder.
Kundapur Tahsildar Pradeep Kurdekar, Amasebail Sub-inspector Ashok Kumar, Amasebail Village Administrative Officer Chandrashekhar Murthy, Panchayat Development Officer Swaminath and Gram Panchayat member Chandra Shetty were among those who visited the spot.
A case has been registered at the Amasebail Police Station based on a complaint filed by Mookambika’s mother Narasi. The officers are investigating the matter.
