UTTARKASHI, Nov. 23, 2023 (TBINN)
Ambulances were on standby and a special ward at a local health centre kept ready as a multi-agency effort to rescue 41 men trapped in the Silkyara Tunnel appeared close to success now.
In a recent development, drilling of steel pipes through the rubble hit a hurdle when some iron rods came in the way of Auger Machine. Officials, however, expected the rescue mission to be over by early morning today.
Till latest reports coming in, 54 metres of an escape pipe had been inserted into the debris of the collapsed stretch of the tunnel in Uttarakhand’s Uttarkashi District, an official informed.
