Mangaluru: Students, staff, and faculty of Bearys Group of Institutions in Innoli, Mangalore, came together for a massive beach clean-up drive at Ullal.

What started as a typical beach day turned into a day of action and unity against pollution.

The once littered beach, strewn with plastic bottles, cups, spoons, and discarded fishing nets, became a battleground for environmental conservation. The participants worked tirelessly, with gloved hands reaching down, grabbing debris, and disposed it in designated bins.

The event was not just about cleaning; it was about building a community, fostering environmental awareness, and instilling a sense of responsibility for the shared spaces we enjoy. The participants dispersed, carrying the spirit of collaboration, the beach remained a symbol of positive change that can be achieved when institutions unite for a common cause.

Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.

The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.

"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.

The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.

There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.

Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.

The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
