Now-a-days we are acknowledging many borewell strategies across the state. Hence in order to rescue children who out of the blue falls into the borewell, the TamilNadu Fire and Rescue Services (TNFRS) Department has requested the IIT-Madras and Anna University to bring in new rescuing technology.
Till now, there is no proper fully fledged equipment to succeed such kind of rescue operations, whispered R.C. Kudawla, Director of TNFRS and Additional-Director General of Police on Tuesday.
We have requested the institutions to bring in advancements upon the basic technologies framed up by few private individuals in Coimbatore and Madurai, he added.
An implementation of the dumped borewells and putting in liability on the organizing establishment�s ad respective land owners will be a valuable procedure to ensure safety and to avoid occurrence of the children plunging into the borewells.
The ancient old procedure of excavating a analogous hole at the bottom always come across the problem of rocky or loose soil, which is equivalently dodgy for the victims, he added.
In the meantime, Manikandan, a student of TVS Community College in Madurai has crafted a �Borewell Robot� which aided in saving a boy who fell into a tube well in Thirunelveli district. He said to the pressmen that, he would egg on any institution or individual to further progress his concept.
