UTTARKASHI, Nov. 23, 2023 (TBINN)
Drilling through the rubble of the collapsed Silkyara tunnel has been put on hold again after the platform, on which, the equipment is mounted developed some cracks, in yet another set-back to the effort to rescue the 41 workers trapped inside.
The rescue workers will “stabilise” the platform on which the 25-tonne Auger Machine is mounted before drilling is resumed, officials said.
Sections of steel pipes were being inserted through the rubble of the collapsed portion for the workers, trapped for 11 days, to be brought out.
