Five young people drowned in Ghodazari Lake in Chandrapur on Saturday evening. Four of the victims were from the same family.

Six entered the water, but only one, Aryan Hemraj Hingoli, managed to escape. The deceased were aged 18 to 22. Rescue teams recovered all five bodies within an hour. Ghodazari Lake is a popular tourist spot, but it has strong currents and sudden depth changes, which can be dangerous for swimmers.
