On Monday morning, former PMO advisor Bhaskar Khulbe and PMO Deputy Secretary Mangesh Ghildiyal appealed to all the concerned departments (RVNL, Navyug, ONGC, State PWD, BRO, and THDC) involved in the rescue operation and asked them to inform them about the measures being taken to save the workers. Asked to provide the report of the rescue operation by evening.

 

Let us tell you that the Border Roads Organization stopped the construction of the road late on Sunday night. According to sources, vibration in the tunnel has come to light during road construction. About 100 meters of road remains to be constructed.

 

The work of laying 125 mm pipe is going on for the workers inside the tunnel. Late at night this pipe was laid up to 57 meters. But, the pipe element went in the wrong direction. Efforts are being made to correct the pipe alignment.
