How the Girl Fell Into the Borewell
According to Faridabad police officials, the incident occurred around 6 pm on Sunday while the girl was playing near a borewell.
Police said the girl had climbed onto a truck parked close to the borewell. She reportedly slipped and fell into the open borewell. Other children who witnessed the incident alerted her family and nearby elders, who immediately informed the authorities.
Residents contacted the police control room, following which police personnel and firefighters from the Haryana Fire Department reached the location.
Rescue teams brought ropes, oxygen cylinders and other lifesaving equipment to the site. They also began digging a parallel shaft in an effort to reach the trapped girl and bring her to safety.
Rescue Operation Continues Through the Night
The Faridabad district administration alerted the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) control room at around 7:45 pm.
A specialised NDRF team, along with personnel from other agencies, reached the site at approximately 9:05 pm and began a coordinated rescue operation.
After several hours of work through the night, rescuers successfully pulled the girl out of the borewell at around 3:50 am on Monday.
Officials said the borewell was approximately 10 years old. Its protective lid had reportedly been removed recently, leaving the opening exposed before the accident occurred.
