CM in touch with administration

CM Mohan Yadav said the news of an innocent child falling into a borewell in Manika village of Rewa district is sad.

He said the team of SDRF and district administration is trying to get the child out safely. I am also in constant touch with the local administration. Instructions have been given to Deputy Chief Minister Shri @rshuklabjp to reach the spot.

Meanwhile, the child's mother and grandmother have demanded that the farm owner be hanged. They allege that the incident happened because the bore was left open and the farm owner has absconded after the incident.
