Further SP Nega expressed serious concern over the growing case of the drowning in the Pare river.
“Mostly youths are losing lives due to drowning and we are very worried. Every evening the water is released from NEEPCO hydel. The locals of the area are well aware and therefore do not venture around the river. But outsiders don’t know and become the victim,” the SP Nega said.
SP appealed to the NEEPCO authorities to carry out large scale publicity to educate people and also made it clear that the present system of issuing warning by blowing siren sound is not enough.
“The siren system should be in place at all the strategic places s along the Pare River. Along with blowing of siren a voice warning the people to avoid the river should also be played. I will write to NEEPCO authorities to look into it and bring out a solution,” added SP Nega.
