Three Children Drown in Pond at Delhi’s Dwarka Golf Course

Officials are probing possible access failures at the under-construction course.

Overview

  • Responders recovered the bodies Thursday morning after a 7:07 am call to Dwarka’s Sector 23 police station.
  • Police later identified the victims as brothers Ravi, 8, and Veer Jaiswal, 11, and their friend Harsh, 11, from nearby low‑income families.
  • Preliminary findings suggest the boys scaled a boundary wall to reach the water, with their clothes found on the bank.
  • Police say an inquest is underway with post-mortem exams pending, while some relatives have alleged foul play that investigators are reviewing.
  • The DDA formed a three-member committee to examine safety lapses at the under-construction site, which includes open water hazards and gaps in CCTV coverage previously flagged by police.
