Rescue operations intensify with vertical drilling reaching 31 meters above the tunnel. The breakdown of the auger machine necessitated the initiation of manual debris removal and the exploration of alternative routes.
Multiple fronts are engaged in the rescue efforts, with the military actively involved. Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister, PK Mishra, visited Uttarkashi, personally interacting with trapped workers and their families. He also scrutinized the provisions and conditions within the tunnel.
