After accidentally dropping a Samsung phone into the water tank, An Indian government official carried out an operation to clear the area to recover the device.. Despite efforts, the attempt failed and the man was suspended from his government post.

In an attempt to salvage his cell phone, the Indian conducted an operation to drain nearly two million liters of water into a canal near the dam over three days..
Before draining the water, Vish hired local divers, but they couldn’t find his cell phone. After the dam was almost dry, the inspector found the smartphone, but the device was no longer working as it was in direct contact with the water.
“He was suspended during the investigation. Water is an important resource and cannot be wasted that way,” Kanker district official Priyanka Shukla told the newspaper. National.
Which is better: water or smartphone?
The Indian did not detail the model of the Samsung device, but said it costs around US$1,200 (about US$6,000 at current prices).
