The construction workers were evacuated to safety after a cave-in
RT’s Runjhun Sharma reports from northern India where a dramatic relief operation ended on Tuesday with the rescue of all 41 construction workers trapped in a collapsed highway tunnel.
A section of the Silkyara-Barkot tunnel in the country’s mountainous Uttarakhand state caved in on November 12.
The authorities had used a small pipe, which remained intact after the disaster, to deliver food, water and medical supplies to the trapped men.
The workers were eventually freed after weeks of grueling drilling operations.
