At least 12 drown in a lake in central India after their boats capsize during a religious ceremony
Rescuers conduct a search operation on a lake in Bhopal in the central Indian state for Madhya Pradesh on Friday, September 13, 2019.
The boats, carrying 20 to 25 people on board, tipped over in the early hours in Bhopal as they were about to immerse an idol of the Hindu elephant god Ganesha. Police officer Akhil Patel said five people were rescued from the lake in Bhopal, the capital of Madhya Pradesh state. This week marks the end of the Ganesh Chaturthi festival, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, when colourfully decorated idols of Ganesha are immersed in water.
