Four people drowned after they stood waist-deep in water near the Pambar Dam in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
In 2017, the state of Karnataka launched a campaign to warn that"selfies can kill" after four students died in two incidents linked to selfies.
India accounted for around half of the 259 selfie fatalities reported from October 2011 to November 2017, according to a study by researchers associated with the All India Institute of Medical Sciences last year, whose findings were published in the Bansal said he was concerned about how many of the selfie-related deaths involved young people. The study found that more than 85 percent of the victims were between the ages of 10 and 30, he said.
