A nine-year-old boy fell stuck in a 70-foot deep borewell at Kurion-Ka-Baas near Jaipur. He was rescued by a joint operation of the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) after six hours of struggle.
Akshit, who had come to spend summer vacation with his maternal uncle, was roaming in the Bhojpur Kala farm area when he suddenly fell into the borewell, Raj Kumar Gupta, Additional DGP-SDRF, said.
