The other two boys, identified as Kartik (14) and Aniket (12), were immediately taken out of the pond and rushed to JPC hospital. The doctors declared them brought dead.
This incident took place in water accumulated in a low-lying area which creates ponds like pools, due to the overflow of the Yamuna River in the rainy season.
The police have initiated legal action against this.
