QUESTION
Mud in borewell water due to sidewall collapse in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand

 

  • Location: Jamshedpur, Jharkhand
  • Depth - 150 ft; Water found at 50 ft
  • Casing - Till 70 ft
  • Submersible Pump

 

Due to heavy rains recently, the sidewalls had collapsed leading to mud in the borewell and over the pump too.

We think the casing was not done till it reached hard rock or there was soft soil after some hard rock .

Is flushing the borewell an option?
