Bhole, along with his elder brother Pranay and four other friends, went to Peb (Vikatgad) Fort hills in Neral near Karjat for trekking as monsoon has started. “Both brothers are fond of trekking and usually go for trekking every year. On Saturday, around 11 am, they were climbing the hills, when a stone fell on Bhole’s head, injuring him," said a close relative.
Harshad brother Pranay, along with the four friends, picked him up and started running to reach the hospital nearby. “After a distance, a few villagers too joined them.

But, the doctor declared him dead as he succumbed to his injuries caused by heavy bleeding and head injuries," added the relative.
