Police said the body of another youth was recovered from the same river Thursday. However, investigations revealed that the victim had drowned in the river Wednesday in an incident that was not related to immersion ceremonies.
In Dhule district, two people drowned during immersion ceremonies at Hanuman Tekdi Dam. Two cousins, aged 17 and 15, drowned in Brahmantala Lake in Ahmednagar district. There was a drowning incident each in Gondia and Jalgaon districts, police officials said.
Besides these, at least 10 people were killed early Friday in a landslide at Saki Naka, in Andheri east suburb, north-west Mumbai.
