Mother and sons drown in Rajasthan water tank

A devastating incident occurred in Rajasthan's Balotra district on Tuesday morning, where a 25-year-old woman and her two young sons lost their lives. The bodies of Muli Devi, her two-year-old son Ravindra, and infant Narayan were discovered in an underground water tank, locally known as a 'tanka,' in Dudwa village.

The discovery was made by family members who noticed the trio missing around 5 am. Their slippers near the water tank alerted them to the possibility of a tragedy. Local divers were involved in recovering the bodies from the tank.

Authorities have initiated an investigation into the cause of the deaths. While the exact reason remains undetermined, preliminary findings point towards a potential family dispute. Police are actively questioning family members and interviewing villagers to gather more information.

It is understood that Muli Devi had been married for about four years, and the family worked as daily wage laborers. The circumstances surrounding the incident, including the timing of when the woman left the house, are under scrutiny. The investigation into this somber event is ongoing.
