Jaipur, May 7 (PTI) Five members of a family were rescued, while two people are feared drowned after a boat capsized in the Bilaspur dam in Rajasthan’s Tonk district, police said on Sunday.

The incident took place on Saturday evening when Mohsin Khan of Todaraisingh panchayat samiti had taken his family for a boat ride, they said.

It was a fishing boat that had a capacity of two people but was carrying seven, including its operator Badri Gurjar. It capsized due to strong winds, causing its occupants to fall into the water, the police said.

Two women, two children and a man were rescued by fishermen. Khan and Gurjar are missing and feared drowned, they said.

A search operation is underway, the police said. PTI SDA DIV DIV
