A fun boating trip turned tragic, when a youngster drowned near Rahim Yar Khan in the Chenab River. According to reports, the teen boy was taking a selfie and fell in the river.
Tragedy struck when the young boy fell off the boat and drowned. It appears that the people failed to take into account the necessary precautions and safety guidelines before embarking on the boating trip. It is crucial that people wear a lifejacket before sitting in the boat, particularly those who don’t know how to swim. Other than that, the general rule is to not lean too much on the edge of the boat as it might disbalance it. Unfortunately, due to lack of supervision and perhaps a disregard for basic precautions, a young man lost his life to capture the perfect selfie.
