Nineteen hours on, efforts still on to rescue child alive from borewell

Nineteen hours on, the 18-month-old girl Veena who fell into the borewell at Ikkareddygudem, in Hyderabad is still stuck. NDRF, fire and expert bore well teams are striving relentlessly even using advanced technology to get her out safely but their attempts are not yielding any results.

Robo hands and trains also failed to rescue the girl. Estimating that the girl was on motor inside the well, the rescue team tried to pull up the motor. While they managed to lift the motor, they couldn't get the girl.

Now, the rescue team is sending oxygen into the well as the officers have confirmed that the girl is still alive. They are digging a parallel pit but it is getting tough as the area is rocky.

Tension is mounting for the parents who are eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of their child.
