Rescue Efforts Continue for 5-Year-Old Trapped in 150-Foot Borewell in Rajasthan

The child, who fell into an open borewell while playing in Dausa, is being supplied oxygen as teams work through the night to save him.

A 5-year-old boy named Aryan fell into a 150-foot-deep borewell on Monday while playing in an agricultural field in Kalikhad village, Dausa district, Rajasthan.
Rescue operations, involving NDRF, SDRF, and Civil Defence teams, have been ongoing for over 24 hours, with excavation efforts using JCB machines to dig a parallel hole.
Oxygen is being supplied to the child through a pipe, and officials report that his condition remains stable as of the latest updates.
Authorities are using cameras to monitor the boy's movements, though the last observed activity was noted early Tuesday morning.
This incident highlights recurring safety concerns around open borewells in India, with similar cases reported in other states in recent months.
