Uttarkashi Tunnel Rescue: Tunneling expert Arnold Dix speaks on successful mission | Oneindia News

Delhi: Professor Arnold Dix, an international tunnelling expert who provided important technical support on the ground in the Uttarakhand tunnel rescue operation, says, "Before I arrived here, I knew this region was a very sacred area for Hindu people.

Also, I knew the purpose of this tunnel was to allow pilgrims to go between sacred temples.

There was an epic dimension to this mission.

It is a Himalayan mountain; it doesn't get any bigger than that." #ArnoldDix #UttarkashiRecue #UttarkashiTunnel #Uttarakhand #Uttarkashi #PushkarSinghDhami #PMModi #Modi #India #UttarakhandNews #Dehradun #OneIndia #OneindiaNews ~HT.178~GR.125~PR.151~ED.194~
