Dehradun, Jul 17 (PTI) A boy from Haryana went missing after being swept away by the strong current while bathing in the Ganges river in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, on Friday.

According to the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), an extensive search operation is underway in the Ganges to locate Deepanshu (16), a resident of Gurugram, but no trace of him has been found so far.
