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. However, both speakers call for empathy and sensitivity in online conversations, noting the lasting impact of negativity on grieving families.
