Nagpur, India- In a troubling turn of events at the Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) swimming pool, questions are being raised about the safety protocols following the tragic drowning of a 36-year-old man. Krunal Salpekar's untimely demise has sparked concerns among locals, especially with recent revelations that crucial CCTV footage covering six hours of the incident has been tampered with.

Salpekar, a familiar face at the pool and a resident of Abhyankar Nagar, had been enjoying a swim on a typical Tuesday evening when the unfortunate incident occurred. Despite the presence of other swimmers, Salpekar's distress went unnoticed until it was too late. The delay in alerting authorities has left many scratching their heads, wondering why prompt action wasn't taken.

It wasn't until a vigilant parent, waiting to pick up their child, noticed something amiss and alerted the authorities. By then, Salpekar had been rushed to the hospital, but suspicions had already been raised due to the missing CCTV footage.

The pool, a popular spot especially during the summer and school holidays, is managed by NIT but operated by a private contractor. This incident has shed light on potential gaps in security and accountability.

As the community mourns Salpekar's loss, there's a growing demand for transparency and accountability. The destruction of crucial evidence has only fueled concerns, prompting locals to call for a thorough investigation and justice for Salpekar and his grieving family.
