Singh sent his best wishes to Prince and his family, a PMO spokesman said shortly after the boy was lifted out from the narrow 60-foot uncovered pit dug for a tubewell into which he had accidentally fallen while playing.

Singh, who had been kept informed about the efforts to rescue the boy, earlier said the government would "take full medical care" of him.
