There are many incidents of children falling into borewells over two decades. And these incidents don't seem to be stopping even now. While many children are rescued, a few families have lost their children to such accidents. Why these borewells are not covered and other measures are taken to ensure their safety and avoid these evitable accidents?
More than a dozen of such incidents are reported just in Madhya Pradesh in the last one and half years from different parts of the state. Earlier, a similar case from the Vidisha district of Madhya Pradesh was recorded where a 7-year-old boy fell in a borewell and was rescued 24 hours later by a joint operation of SDRF and the Indian Army. However, the little boy succumbed to death by the time he was rescued.
