Mangaluru, Apr 10: Two young women drowned at NITK beach in Surathkal on the outskirts of the city today.
The deceased have been identified as Trisha (17) and her sister Vaishnavi (18), both Mangaluru locals.
The incident took place when they had entered the water for bathing as a part of a ritual for which the duo, along with other family members, had visited the seashore.
A huge wave washed them away. Local swimmers and a home guard who was at the shore rushed to the rescue but they reportedly died on the way to the hospital.
