In a post on X, Atishi said, ”It is with great sadness I share the news that the man who fell into the borewell has been found dead by the rescue team.” According to initial information, the deceased was a male aged around 30 years.
”How he entered the borewell room, how he fell inside the borewell – this will be investigated by the police.
