Tragedy struck early in the morning at Khadakwasla dam as nine girls drowned while swimming in Gorhe Khurd village. Despite the efforts of locals, only seven girls could be saved. Unfortunately, the search for the remaining two girls ended in tragedy, as their bodies were found later.

According to sources, a group of nine girls went for a swim in Khadakwasla Dam near Kalmadi Farm House in Gorhe Khurd village earlier today.

The incident has left the entire village in shock and mourning.
