Police constable saves lives of three engineering students at Manginapudi beach
The Hindu
SP, locals praise constable Nagaraju for his daring act.
In a daring act, a police constable Nagaraju, attached to Bandar Taluk police station, saved the lives of three engineering students who were being carried away by the tides at Manginapudi beach on November 23.
Krishna district Superintendent of Police P. Joshua and Machilipatnam Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Masum Basha and other officers appreciated the constable and the villagers who saved the lives of the students.
According to the locals, the three youth who were pursuing engineering in a private college in Vijayawada came for a trip to the beach. They entered into the sea to take bath and went up to some distance into waters.
Suddenly, the high tides carried away the three students who screamed for help. Mr. Nagaraju who was on patrolling duty, along with the fishermen and the villagers, jumped into waters by tying a rope to his hip, rescued the students and brought them to the shore.
“Later, the locals gave first aid to the three students and their condition was stable. The students were natives of Bhimavaram,” Mr. Nagaraju said.
“Mr. Joshua appealed to the public not to venture deep into the sea and take bath at isolated places. The constable would be rewarded,” the DSP said.

When fed into Latin, pusilla comes out denoting “very small”. The Baillon’s crake can be missed in the field, when it is at a distance, as the magnification of the human eye is woefully short of what it takes to pick up this tiny creature. The other factor is the Baillon’s crake’s predisposition to present less of itself: it moves about furtively and slides into the reeds at the slightest suspicion of being noticed. But if you are keen on observing the Baillon’s crake or the ruddy breasted crake in the field, in Chennai, this would be the best time to put in efforts towards that end. These birds live amidst reeds, the bulrushes, which are likely to lose their density now as they would shrivel and go brown, leaving wide gaps, thereby reducing the cover for these tiddly birds to stay inscrutable.
