Uttarkashi Tunnel Ordeal Ends: Here's All What Happened | Uttarkashi Tunnel Collapse News Update

The 17-day ordeal for the 41 labourers trapped in the Silkyara tunnel in Uttarkashi ended on Tuesday after rescue workers pulled out all of them safely. The Silkyara tunnel, part of the Centre's ambitious Char Dham project, collapsed due to a landslide on November 12.

Rat-hole mining experts broke through the last stretch of the rubble at about 7 pm. A team of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Force, Assam (SDRF) entered the steel chute to reach the trapped workers and brought them out on wheeled stretchers one by one. An ambulance with the first of the 41 workers left the tunnel around 8 pm, about an hour after a group of experts in the rat-hole-mining technique dug through the last stretch of rubble.
