Seventy day,s today since Arjun went missing in the Ankola landslide (Arjun Mission). Today is the fifth day of the third phase of the search for Arjun and the challenges are many. Uttara Kannada district, which includes Shirur, is on red alert considering the heavy rain situation.
Dredging and searching will be done today only considering the weather. The warning is that there is a possibility of heavy rainfall including in the coastal area of Gangavali River.
Officials informed that dredging and searching will be done today only considering the weather. During heavy rains, the flow of the river increases and becomes turbid, hindering dredging and landing for divers. In the search conducted yesterday, the light reflector found behind Arjun’s lorry was a turning point.
