Two men who went to help a couple that fell into a 90‑foot dry well in Kukas got trapped themselves, and a civil defence crane team later lifted all four to safety.
A couple slipped into a 90‑foot deep dry well in the Kukas area of Jaipur, prompting two nearby youths to attempt a rescue. While trying to pull the couple out, the two rescuers also lost their footing and became trapped in the same well.
The incident triggered an immediate response from the Jaipur civil defence unit. A heavy‑lift crane was deployed to the site, and operators carefully attached harnesses to each of the four victims.
All four individuals – the couple and the two rescuers – were hoisted out of the well without any reported injuries. Local authorities praised the swift action of the civil defence team for preventing a potentially tragic outcome.
