The deceased has been identified as one Shagolsem Ingocha, 38, son of Shagolsem Pakpi  presently residing at Nepra Company Mamang Leikai.

Sources said his family had been searching for him as he went missing since last night, after he left around 9 pm by informing them that he would be fishing at the river.

In the meanwhile, a minor boy of around seven years old was reportedly drowned into the Ingourok River on Wednesday afternoon, at Lourembam village under Nongpok Sekmai police station.

The deceased has been identified as one Keisham Branson, the only son of Keisham Bijen from Lourembam in Thoubal district.

Branson had fallen into the river while playing with his friends on Tuesday. The current swept him away and his body was recovered in the evening.

Meanwhile, the entire Imphal Valley, which constitutes 40 of the state’s 60 Assembly constituencies, is under flood water, leaving tens of thousands of people displaced.

The national highway, which connects Manipur with southern Assam’s Barak Valley, had been cut off following landslides.

The All India Radio (AIR) station is also submerged in flood waters resulting in the suspension of the services.

Electricity services in many parts across the State were also hit severely because of the flood.

A number of river embankments caved in at various places as several rivers were in a spate flowing above the danger level.
