New Delhi: A six-year-old boy who had fallen into a 300-feet-deep borewell in the Gadriwala village of Hoshiarpur in Punjab died after a 9-hour-long joint operation on Sunday. According to officials, when several stray dogs began following Rithik Roshan while he was playing in a field, he climbed a borewell shaft, news agency PTI reported. The borewell shaft was covered with a jute bag, which could not support the boy's weight and came way, leading him to fall into the borewell. The youngster comes from a family of migrant workers.
