Four youths were rescued after being stranded on an island in Khandwa due to rising water levels. The rescue operation took around 11 hours to complete.
A group of four youths had gone to the Handikundi picnic spot in Khandwa for a day out. However, their fun was short-lived as the water level in the nearby river suddenly rose, leaving them stranded on an island. The local administration, police, and SDRF team swung into action and launched a rescue operation. After a painstaking effort of nearly 11 hours, all the youths were safely rescued in the early hours of Friday.
