Hubballi: Six-year-old Kaveri, who fell into a borewell in Junjarwad village of Belagavi district on Saturday evening, was pulled out dead after a rescue operation which lasted for more than 54 hours.
The girl was stuck at a depth of 24 feet in the borewell and efforts to reach her were hampered by rocks. The foul smell emanating from the borewell since Monday evening had led to doubts about her surviving the mishap. All through the rescue exercise, oxygen was supplied to the girl through a tube under the supervision of Health Department Officials.
