A 5-year-old boy fell into a borewell while playing in Rajasthan's Dausa district on Monday evening, prompting the district administration to initiate a rescue operation. This incident took place in Kalikhad village of Papada police station area of Dausa at around 3 pm. While playing, Aryan's foot slipped and he fell into an open borewell nearby, his mother was nearby working in the agricultural field.

The child was at a depth of about 150 feet and his condition is stable, a medical team was at the spot and he was provided with oxygen. National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), and Civil Defence teams also reached the spot.

Seven large excavators reached the spot around the borewell in which Aryan was trapped. 

The rescue operation has been going the whole night. "NDRF-SDRF teams are working... the administration is trying their best (to rescue the child)," Dausa District Magistrate Devendra Kumar said.

"Excavation is being done with a JCB. Rescue efforts are being made, and the child's condition is fine," he said.
