Ring cannot be used in this situation: SP
According to reports, Dausa SP Rajnita Sharma said, "We sent a camera yesterday and the child was seen moving. Now, it is expected that the child must have fallen asleep. The situation is difficult because there is a boring motor machine at a depth of 150 feet on which the child is stuck.
Therefore, the normal procedure, in which the NDRF uses a ring to take the child out, cannot be used in this scenario. We are trying our best and hope that the child will be taken out in a few hours." The borewell was dug three years ago
