A 50-year-old man was electrocuted to death while wading through rain waters outside the Rewari civil hospital, police said today. Banke Bihari, a farmer from Gangachay Jat village here, suffered electric shock yesterday as he came quite close to the power transformer while wading through rain waters that had accumulated outside the boundary wall of the civil hospital, Gokal Gate police post-in-charge, Mahipal said.

According to the complaint lodged by the deceased's brother, Bihari was electrocuted while he was wading through the nearly 2.5-feet-deep water-logged premises on his way back after purchasing medicines, he said.
