Dibrugarh, Nov 8: In a tragic incident, two brothers wahed away in the Brahmaputra river while offering pind dan (offering homage to departed souls) at Mohanaghat area in Dibrugarh on Wednesday morning.

The incident happened while two brothers were offering pindan to their departed mother, who died six months ago.

The two brothers have been identified as Diganta Kakoti and Ananta Kakoti, residents of the Amolapatty area of Dibrugarh.

According to reports, Diganta fell on the river while going to offer the pind; his younger brother jumped in the river to rescue his elder brother, and from then on they were missing.

The incident was reported at 8.45 a.m. in the Mohanaghat area of Dibrugarh.

Meanwhile, SDRF launched a rescue operation to find the brothers.

Diganta Kakoti was married and had two girls, while Ananta was unmarried.

“A small girl came with them, and she reported the whole incident. She is the eyewitness of this sad incident,” said a police official.
