00:30one at the bottom of the shop yesterday the water is very murky and the water is quite

00:53acidic so nothing is visible so today four divers had gone down NDRF and army divers

00:59they were able to retrieve one body from the bottom of the shaft now we have arterial tunnels

01:04going in every side the ROV has done one round the Navy ROV has done one round of the entire

01:13shaft the ROV has both photography and sonar capabilities that has not found anything now

01:22Navy divers are going down to the shaft we will first clear out the shaft and then start

01:27entering the tunnels in the meanwhile efforts are on to continuously dewater the well it

01:33seems that the well is connected down below in the subterranean level into some sort of

01:38a water source because of which even though we are pulling out water, water levels are

01:44not receding so once the ROV goes into the tunnels we will have a better idea this is

01:49a long drawn out process but the one thing I want to say is that the way everybody has

01:54come together in the relief efforts whether it is the state government, the army, the

02:02Navy, the Air Force for transporting everybody, ONGC is here with their pumps, Coal India

02:08experts have already reached they are bringing in their pumps so everybody is working together

02:13and we hope we will have more results soon we have had some clarity we will get more

02:19clarity soon thank you. See right now I just explained to you the procedure so the tracing

02:30will take place with the procedure as far as the other person is concerned he was a local boy he

02:36is identified and they have sent the body right now for post-mortem inquest first then post-mortem

02:41to half long because post-mortem facilities are available in half long and after that his family

02:46is being contacted and arrangements will be made to hand over the body with proper respect and all

02:54formalities thank you.
