In UP's Mathura, five gurukul students climb in to clean water tank; 4 dead
At a Gurukul in UP's Mathura, students were asked to clean the foul-smelling water tank. A boy climbed in. He didn’t come out. Four others went down after him to pull him out. All five collapsed, apparently from toxic gas trapped inside. They were eventually rescued and rushed to hospital. Four were declared dead. The fifth, Rudraksh, survived and is under treatment.
The deceased have been identified as Manu Katare, Vishu Sharma, Aryan Pandey and Devansh Sharma, aged roughly 16 to 20. About 100 students live at the gurukul, which is run by Ashish Kumar Sharma who fled from the premises after the incident.
