"The Sub-Divisional Magistrate is inquiring into the incident...whether the alleged specific officer had permission to operate in that area.

There are allegations that there should have been at least 10 people on the speed boat, it is alleged that only three or four were present when the incident happened. All these angles are being looked into..." he added. Bhubaneswar witnessed light rainfall on Saturday as pre-monsoon showers continued across Odisha.
