Ambernath Youth Rescued After Jumping Into 1,500-Foot Valley At Matheran’s Alexander Point During Trip

A young man from Ambernath made a daring jump into a 1,500-foot deep valley at Alexander Point in Matheran on Friday night, during a sightseeing excursion with friends. The incident occurred while the 21-year-old artist, identified as Sonu Jalaram Gautam, was admiring the scenery when one of his companions noticed him heading towards the valley while speaking on his mobile phone.

Gautam's friends promptly alerted the Matheran police station about the emergency. Police and the rescue team from the Sahyadri Mitra Emergency Social Organisation launched a challenging operation to locate and retrieve Gautam. The rescue mission, which continued through the night, was complicated by harsh weather conditions including strong winds, rain, and dense fog, as well as the treacherous terrain of the deep valley.

Despite these obstacles, the rescue team persevered and successfully completed the operation at approximately 3 am on Saturday, retrieving the stranded youth.
