Nikhil’s sister Sonam Kumari, who has appealed to the people to help find her brother, told local reporters, “It has been five days but we have no information about my brother and his friend. My family is very upset. I have posted an appeal so that if anyone has any information about my brother, they can inform us.”
Mini Devi, Sonam’s mother, told reporters, “On November 18, my son had left home for Rishikesh to celebrate his 22nd birthday which falls on November 20. Nikhil said that he was going with his three friends. I asked him not to travel now but he was adamant.”
