Today, a horrible incident happened in Mumbai. A 20-year-old college girl and her friends went to Bandra Bandstand, near to water to take selfies. They didn’t imagine that they are going to face a dangerous problem. Unfortunately, one of the girls named Tarannum slipped and went inside the water. She is believed to have swept away in the high tide. Immediately, a youth who was close to the girls too jumped into the water.

When the incident occurred the girl along with her two friends aged around 19 and 20 have gone to take photos. Three college girls, all are residents of Bainganwadi in suburban Govandi. Soon the Bandra police and the fire brigade have reached the spot and are carrying out the rescue operation. According to the girl’s friends, they were taking selfies, standing on the rock, close to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link (BWSL).

“The girls were standing 50 meters away from the shore when the water suddenly rose. They did not notice water rising and remained on the rock taking pictures (selfies). One of the girls was pulled into the water due to high tide. After seeing the girl, a youngster Ramesh Walunj standing close to the Bandstand jumped into the water to rescue her. But he too was caught in the tide,” said Bandra police.

“We are trying to locate the duo but they are yet to be found. Fire officials along with the local fishermen continue to carry out the operations. As this is high tide time we are facing problems in rescue operations. We are hoping that both of them are safe,” said investigating officer P Bhosale.
