Body of one victim retrieved, search operations on for two others
A paddy-harvester operator from Punjab drowned and his two co-workers were washed away in the Nagarjunasagar Project (NSP) irrigation canal at Kattakuru village in Mudigonda mandal late on Monday night.
Sources said that the trio had gone out to attend nature’s call near their worksite late in the night. They accidentally got swept away in the nearby brimming canal shortly after midnight.
Some local farmers found their footwear along the banks of the canal early on Tuesday morning and passed on the information to the police.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
