The boy was trapped at a depth of 39 feet in the borewell, which is around 140-feet deep, Guna Collector Satendra Singh said on Saturday. The borewell did not strike water, and hence no casing had been put on it, he said. The NDRF team reached there from Bhopal late Saturday evening and helped in the operation. The family members of the boy panicked on Saturday evening when they did not see him for a long time. A search was carried out and then they realised he had fallen into the borewell, a local person said.
