Technical Issues Halt Rescue Operations for Trapped Workers in Uttarkashi Tunnel

Broke On: Saturday, 18 November 2023 Rescue operations for the 40 workers trapped inside the Silkyara tunnel in Uttarkashi have been temporarily halted due to technical issues with the 'American auger' drill machine. The Prime Minister's Office has taken charge of the operations, and state authorities have approved buying equipment and more manpower to implement options such as constructing escape tunnels from the left and right sides of the tunnel. The tunnel is part of the Chardham Project of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, seen as one of the most ambitious undertakings of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government. The trapped workers have received Vitamin C and medicines including anti-depression tablets. They have been supplied with light, oxygen, food, water and medicines from the outside and are able to communicate via walkie-talkie.
