Two teenage tribal students were electrocuted at a government-run hostel in Dhar district, Madhya Pradesh, an official reported on Wednesday.

The incident took place on Tuesday night at the Senior Students’ Hostel managed by the state Scheduled Caste Welfare Department in Ringnod, about 50 kilometers from the district headquarters.

Assistant Commissioner Brijkant Shukla stated, “A live electricity wire fell near a water tank due to some fault. When the two 17-year-old students, Vikas and Akash, went to get water, they came into contact with the live wire.”

They were rushed to a hospital, where doctors pronounced them dead. The official noted that action would be taken against those responsible for the incident following an investigation.
