SHIRUR: Karwar MLA Satish Krishna Sail stated that Arjun's truck is ten meters deep from Gangavali. He said that the timber had come off the lorry and metal parts were found at four places. 'Drone inspection will be done at night too. If the current in the river is more than two knots, divers cannot descend. It has not been possible to confirm that there is human presence inside the lorry,' said the MLA.
Navy informed that it will be difficult to go down the river and carry out inspection in case of strong current in Gangavali. With this, the rescue operation on the 10th day to find Arjun was also in crisis. Meanwhile, the mission team has confirmed that the underwater truck belongs to Arjun. But the drone inspection has not yet confirmed which side of the truck's cabin.
Iboard tests have received signals confirming the presence of metals under the river. This has been confirmed by the mission team. Officials informed that the divers were not able to go down. At the same time, the owner Manaf responded that he had found pieces of wood in Arjun's lorry. Four pieces of wood were found 12 km away.
There is rain warning in Uttara Kannada today. When the mission reached its critical stage yesterday, the weather was hostile. Karnataka Revenue Minister Krishna Byra Gowda and the army confirmed at 3.30 pm yesterday that the truck was found at a depth of 20 meters on the banks of the Gangavali, along the national highway, during the Navy's sonar inspection and the Army's radar inspection. Ten days have passed since Arjun went missing.
