Punjabi Youth Drowns in America: Tragedy Strikes Again – Tricity News Hub
In a heartbreaking incident, a 22-year-old Punjabi youth named Hashnpreet Singh from the village of Muthiada near Banur, Punjab lost his life by drowning in California’s Milton Lake, US. This devastating news has left his family in profound grief and shock, not only in the Tricity region but also across the world.
Hashnpreet Singh, the only son and the primary support for his mother, had left for the United States in December 2021 for his hotel management studies. His tragic death is being mourned by the entire community, and the news of this Punjabi youth’s death in America has sent ripples of sorrow throughout the Tricity area.
This unfortunate event took place when Hashnpreet, along with his friends, went for a recreational visit to Milton Lake. It was there that he lost his balance, fell into the lake, and tragically drowned. Despite immediate rescue efforts by his friends and local authorities, Hashnpreet could not be saved and was declared dead in the hospital.
The situation is even more heart-rending as it was only one and a half months ago when Hashnpreet’s father, Kashmir Singh, drowned in the Bhakhra Canal. The sudden demise of his father left Hashnpreet as the sole support for his mother and two sisters.
As reported by the Tricity News Hub, this tragic incident underscores the potential dangers Punjabi students might face while studying abroad. The incident has left a void in the heart of our local community, and Hashnpreet’s family and friends are in our thoughts and prayers during this extremely tough time.
