Uttarakhand Rescue Operations

Actor Sunny Deol got emotional today after hearing the story of a man who helped in the Silkyara tunnel rescue operation in Uttarakhand at the NDTV Indian Of The Year awards this evening.

One of the houses that was razed in the Delhi Development Authority's (DDA) recent demolition drive belonged to Vakeel Hasan, a rat-hole miner who played a key role in the Uttarakhand tunnel rescue operation last year.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Thursday said that the people in India and across the world were praying to the god for the success in the rescue operation in Uttarkashi's Silkyara tunnel where 41 workers got trapped.

The entire nation watched with rapt attention as 41 workers were brought out to safety after 17 days inside a collapsed Uttarakhand tunnel.

The 41 workers who had been trapped in the tunnel in Uttarkashi for over 400 hours only showed jetlag-like symptoms and were so healthy that none of them made use of the wheeled stretchers that were kept ready to pull them out.

Hope that they would be rescued soon kept many of the workers trapped in a collapsed tunnel in Uttarakhand strong through their ordeal, some of the men said on Wednesday, hours after they were pulled out of 17 days of confinement.

A day after they were rescued from the tunnel where they had been trapped for 17 days, 41 construction workers have been airlifted in an Indian Air Force Chinook and are being taken to AIIMS in Rishikesh.

With 10-12 meters of rubble obstructing their escape, the joint operation, overseen by Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, ended with the safe extraction of all workers.

The morning after 41 workers trapped inside an Uttarakhand tunnel were rescued after a 17-day operation, tunnelling expert Arnold Dix said he has to go back to the makeshift temple outside the tunnel "to say thank you".

The 41 workers, who were rescued from Uttarakhand's Silkyara tunnel in a multi-agency rescue operation, kept their spirits up while trapped inside by taking morning walks and practising yoga, a rescued worker told Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hailed the Indian authorities for successfully carrying out the rescue operation to evacuate 41 workers who were trapped inside the Silkyara-Barkot tunnel in Uttarakhand.

Rescuers have pulled out all 41 workers trapped for 17 days inside a collapsed Uttarakhand tunnel after rat miners drilled through the debris, triggering jubilation. The focus will now be on what led to the collapse and why the rescue took so long.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke to workers, who were rescued from the collapsed tunnel after 17 days, over the phone after the operation was declared a success.
