submerged pump got tucked in the well

(OP)
I have installed the submerge pump the ground well .once it cross 100ft bore well pipe size reduce to 3inch and gape between submerged pump and bore well just 0.5 inch difference due to rock chips it got stucked in between , we tried chain pulley by ropes due strong stuck in between even rope and wire got cut . the only option I have is pipe which is connected pump so kindly say your suggestion to get back the pump.

RE: submerged pump got tucked in the well

You will have to withdraw the well casing, if that is possible --- if not possible, call it experience and drill another well, use a larger diameter well casing and keep any rock chips and other rubbish out of the well.

Contract with a professional well driller. They have specialized tools and experience for these situations.
