Some girls entered the river as they made their way back. One of the girls fell and was carried away. In an effort to save her, three of her friends also died in the water.

The villagers and firefighters later came across their bodies.

In addition to offering the grieving family his condolences, Chief Minister MK Stalin also announced a compensation of Rs 2 lakh.
