Sudden flash floods in the river washed away the duo along with the earthmover and the tipper, the officials said.
The Army, police, and locals launched the operation to trace the two people who were washed away in the flash floods near Darhali Nallah, they said.
The body of Sajad was recovered and efforts are on to trace the other person, Ibrar, the officials added.
