Bahraich. There is mourning in the village after the death of three brothers and sisters by drowning in the pond in Manhurikala’s Majre Nandolia, village panchayat of Bahraich. This accident happened while grazing goat. The mother and one son were saved in the accident. Naib Tehsildar Vijay Kumar visited the spot. All of them are comforting the relatives of the dead children. On Wednesday evening, Arif’s six-year-old son Faiz went fishing in the pond located near the house. At the same time, his mother Saira Banu went to graze goats with her three young children Kaiseroon (04), Faiz (06) and Masroon (06). While fishing, suddenly Faiz’s foot slipped and he started drowning. Seeing the son drowning, his mother Saira Banu took her six-month-old daughter Masroon in her lap and ran to save him. Seeing the mother leaving, both the small children also followed her. The mother somehow saved her elder son Faiz from drowning in the water, but in the meantime Masroon fell from the mother’s lap.
She reached a semi-deranged state after three children drowned in the water. When Arif got information about this, he ran from the village towards the pond. The wife and eldest son were somehow rescued and transported to the field. By then other villagers also reached and started looking for the children. With great difficulty, the three children were taken out and taken to the Community Health Center Kaiserganj, but all the three children died. This caused an uproar in the village. Seeing the cries of the family members, the eyes of the villagers became moist. In-charge Inspector Madhupnath Mishra said that legal action is being taken. Tehsildar Shivprasad said that after the post-mortem report comes, financial assistance will be provided to the victim’s family.
