Karimnagar: Rescue operation is continuously ng to fish out the body of Kampali Shankar (50), who plunged into an agricultural well along with a tractor near Banjerupalli of Thimmapur mandal on Thursday evening.

According to police, Shanker recently got sanctioned a tractor under Dalit Bandhu scheme. As he did not know driving, Shankar was learning driving with the help of a driver Mallesham from Mahatmanagar.

The LMD police including CI Shashidhar Reddy, SI Pramod Reddy rushed to the spot and began a rescue operation by deploying a crane and professional swimmers. But, they failed to find Shankar as well as the tractor due to heavy water in the well.
The rescue operation, which was stalled due to the night, has again started in the morning.
