An 18-year-old died after he saved two people from drowning in Vihar lake on Friday afternoon. The teenager, identified as Faiyaz Ali, had swallowed too much water during the rescue and breathed his last while being moved to another hospital.

Faiyaz had gone to the lake with his friends, identified as Ganesh Khatke and Lalit Vishwakarma, post lunch on Friday for a swim. While Faiyaz was near the edge of the lake, his friends decided to go deeper. Suddenly, all of them heard someone calling out for help.
