QUESTION
Need help to pull out the stuck pump from the borewell

Hello,

We have a borwell from last 3 years at our farm in Khajuraho ( Madhyapradesh)  installed with 5 HP submersible motor at 150 ft. It has 2inch HDPE delivery hose. Six months ago the pump stopped working. We removed it, got it repaired and installed it again at 120 ft. Now again it has stopped working and is stuck at 40 ft depth. Supporting cables ( tochan) have been broken while trying to lift the pump with chain pulley system. Tried with local borewell mechanics also but no success. Please suggest some alternatives to save both the pump and the bore or atleast one of the two since the depth is not much.
