Uttarakhand Police said in their tweet that the youths from Etah in Uttar Pradesh were on their way to see Shri Maa Poornagiri and were bathing in the river at Sharda Ghat, Tanakpur. The swimmer was identified as Ravinder Pehelwan from the Uttarakhand Police and the local youth was identified as Suraj.

”Two youths from Etah, Uttar Pradesh, who came to see Shri Maa Poornagiri, started flowing while bathing in the river at Sharda Ghat, Tanakpur.#UttarakhandPolice Swimmer Ravinder Pehelwan and local youth Suraj saved both of them safely by jumping into the river.#UKPoliceHaiSaath,” read the roughly translated tweet in Hindi.

In July this year, Uttarakhand Police shared a video showing the rescue of a man from a fast flowing river in Kangra Ghat. In the hair-raising video, the man was seen struggling in rapid water currents. Swiftly a police officer and two other men plunged into the river and brought him to safety.
