Jaipur: Two men were killed after a stone quarry cave-in occurred in Hardi village near Bassi, under the Kanota police station area on Friday.
DCP (East) Gyan Chandra Yadav said that the deceased were identified as Ram Karan and Rakesh. “The incident occurred when two individuals were extracting stones from the quarry. Boulders fell over them, burying them underneath,” he said.
Yadav said that the police have to examine whether the stones were extracted as per the norms and with prior permission or not. “We are investigating the case, including checking if the stones were being extracted legally or not,” he said.
Police said that they had received information around 10 am about the cave-in at the quarry. They then roped in the civil defence and the state disaster relief force (SDRF) to help rescue the two stranded men.
Sources said that JCB machines were pressed into service to remove the heavy boulder, and finally, around 3 am, both their bodies were taken out from the debris. However, the two men had died before being rescued.
Locals told police that some people were taking out stones from the quarry and filling them in tractor trolleys when, all of a sudden, the boulders rolled down, burying the two men under the debris. TNN

Did you know heels were originally designed for men?
High heels were originally designed for men, specifically for Persian soldiers in the 10th century to help them secure their feet in stirrups while riding. The functional aspect of heels spread across the Persian Empire and into Europe, where they were initially adopted by the male aristocracy as a symbol of privilege and wealth. However, as fashion trends shifted towards practicality in the Enlightenment era, heels fell out of favor among European men. At the same time, heels gained traction in women’s fashion, becoming associated with grace, elegance, and femininity. Today, high heels continue to be worn by women for style, confidence, and self-expression.
