Three Die Attempting to Rescue Bull from Toxic Well in Madhya PradeshPreviousNext

In Madhya Pradesh's Maihar district, three family members died and one was critically injured while attempting to rescue a bull trapped in a 35-40-foot-deep abandoned well filled with toxic gases and low oxygen. The victims lost consciousness due to suffocation, and villagers retrieved them before medical help arrived. Authorities have registered a case and are conducting post-mortem and forensic analyses to confirm the exact cause of death.
