Uttarakhand: Rescue operations stuck, PMO steps in; vertical tunnel among 5 options on table

IndiaTimes Sunday, 19 November 2023
The operation to rescue workers trapped inside the Silkyara tunnel in Uttarkashi suffered a setback as the 'American auger' drill machine failed to drill beyond 22 meters due to technical issues. As a result, rescue operations had to be stalled. The Prime Minister's Office has taken charge of the rescue operations and has decided to pursue five options to save the lives of the trapped workers. These options include vertical drilling, excavating escape channels, and continuing with the previous method of pushing pipes.
