Senior police officer, Dhananjay Jadhav stated, “A rescue team recovered the bodies of the five deceased who jumped one after another into the well where animal waste was stored.”
“The sixth person, who also in an attempt to save others, entered the well survived. He was injured during the rescue process. He was taken out and rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment,” he added.
