The incident happened earlier this week when the doctor along with her few friends, had gone for a hangout at the Colomb-Patnem beach in Goa. They were standing on a rock in an isolated part of the beach that was away from the vigilance of the lifeguards. They were clicking selfie on the spot when sudden sea currents drove two of them to the sea.



On noticing two women missing from the group, their friends and a few residents of the locality were able to rescue one while Dr Krishna could not be seen for a while.
