Well rescued
Ulhas Mandlik, 35, a power loom owner from Ichalkaranji, Maharashtra, and his mother was homeward bound one evening when heavy rain forced them to take shelter beneath a bridge. Not far away, a small group of labourers huddled together under a part of the cement housing above a 16 metre deep well used to pump water for irrigation. Suddenly, Mandlik and his mother heard the labourers scream. When the two got to the well, they were told that a 5 year old boy named Hariya had fallen in through side opening in the structure. Ignoring his mother's fear, Mandlik quickly knotted together lengths of flismy rope belonging to the labourers and ask them to lower him into the dark well." I hope the rope holds," he thought. As he descended, Mandlik noticed the metal ranks on the wall of the well. He grabbed hold one off and started climbing down, when he saw the boy clinging to a pipe running up the Wells centre. Grabbing the child, Mandlik started to climb praying that the old runks wouldn't give away and plunge them both into the churning water below. Their luck held and within of few minutes, Mandlik clambered to ground level and handed over to his sobbing father.
The man fell at mandlik's feet and offered him some money as a reward. Refusing the cash, mandlik took her and his family to a nearby eatery and offered them steaming tea to warm them up. Several organisations have honour Mandlik for his bravery and presence of mind on that which day 3 years ago."I am happy I was at the right place and right time", he says, and was able to return a boy to his family .

Answers
Chemical weathering typically increases as temperatures rise and rain falls, which means rocks in hot and wet climates experience faster rates of chemical weathering than do rocks in cold, dry climates.
Physical weathering occurs more often in cold climates, because the different minerals within rocks expand and contract at different rates when they are heated and cooled. Repeated heating and cooling cycles eventually cause rocks to fracture. Desert and mountain climates experience a wide range of temperatures from low to high during a day and night, which accounts for the breakdown of rocks known as physical weathering.
Biological weathering occurs when living organisms break up rocks. Tree roots, for example, can fracture rocks in the same way they buckle pavement. Warm, humid climates are most favorable to life. Contrast the rich diversity of life in a rainforest, for example, with the scarcity of life in the dry Sahara or the frigid Antarctic. Consequently, rates of biological weathering are most rapid in warm humid climates like those in tropical regions.
