Bodies of 3 women recovered after land subsidence in Dhanbad's coal mine area

Bodies of three women were recovered from a crater where they fell following a land subsidence at a colliery area in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district, officials said on September 19.

The women got trapped in the deep crater after the soil caved in at Gondudih colliery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL) on Sunday, they said.

Baghmara circle officer Ravi Bhushan Prasad, who was overseeing the rescue operation, said the last body was brought out from the crater around 9.20 p.m. on Monday.
