Rescue operations underway by the NDRF and SDRF teams to pull out the two-year-old boy who trapped in a borewell at Tiruchirappalli of Tamil Nadu. Eighteen hours on, the rescue teams are still struggling to save the child.

Sujith had been traped at a depth of around 26 feet initially and was later slipped further down the borewell. The state health minister Dr Vijaya Bhaskar said that the rope was knotted to the child's hand when he remained at a depth of 26 feet. While trying to knot the other hand resulted in him slipping, he added.

Oxygen is being supplied through the pipe, but the officials are concerned about the boy's health as he served no food and water. Meanwhile, attempts to reach the boy by excavating nearby areas were called off after the machines hit a layer of rock.
