The victim, identified as Srinivas Karuturi, reportedly faced financial difficulties, as per his wife's statement to the police. Srinivas, who worked as an engineer in a private firm, drove his Tata Nexon car to the bridge and stopped there before jumping off around 12:35 pm on July 24. Police have initiated a search operation to recover his body, with coastal guards and local fishermen aiding in the effort. Srinivas' identity was confirmed through his Aadhaar card found in his wallet inside the parked car, which also contained an identity card from a construction firm where he previously worked.
