More than $140,000 has been raised by the community to support the families of two men who lost their lives at the Never Never River in NSW. Fundraiser organiser Sunita Kalkal, a family friend of Sahil Batra, expresses gratitude for the compassion shown by volunteers and supporters. Sachin Khillan’s coworker Preeti Barot remembers him warmly and speaks about how colleagues are coping.
