Body of 4-yr-old taken out of borewell

All efforts to save the life of four-year-old Pankaj, who fell into a 250-feet-deep borewell in Piploond village under Jahazpur police station of Bhilwara district, failed as his body was recovered on Friday. The medical team trying to rescue him claimed that Pankaj died due to severe head injury. According to reports, Pankaj slipped into the borewell on Thursday afternoon while he was playing in the nearby field. The district administration swung into action and immediately launched a rescue operation. Earthmovers and oxygen cylinder were rushed to the spot. CCTV cameras were also installed to keep an eye on each and every movement of the victim. Jahazpur SHO Amardeep Singh said oxygen was being supplied continuously. As the rescue team faced difficulty in digging the tunnel parallel to the well with the land being stony, stone-cutting equipment were pressed into service. The operation continued throughout the night and the teams were successful in taking him out but unfortunately his life could not be saved, he said.
