Sujith Wilson Rescue: Tamil Nadu Health Minister says operation in "final stages"

Rescue operations to save the life of two-year-old Sujith Wilson who fell into an abandoned borewell in Tamil Nadu's Tiruchirappalli district are going on in full force. State Health Minister, C. Vijaya Baskar said on Monday, "Due to presence of hard rocks in the area, digging is difficult. The rescue operation is in the final stage." NDRF took over the rescue operation on Saturday after other techniques tried out to rescue Sujith failed. The initial attempts of reaching Sujith failed because the machinery had to be stopped midway as the terrain was rocky and it was believed that the process could cause vibrations that may loosen the soil inside the borewell which could lead to Sujith slipping further down.
