Manali, June 11 (IBNS) Rescuers on Wednesday recovered a sixth body, days after at least 24 students from the Hyderabad city of Andhra Pradesh were washed away in Beas river close to Himachal Pradesh's Mandi city on Sunday.

So far bodies of only six of the 24 students have been recovered. As many as 18 students and one tour guide are still missing.
