Uttarakhand Tunnel Rescue Operation Live Updates: What Is Rat-Hole Mining?
Following a recent setback in the ongoing efforts to free 41 trapped workers from the collapsed Silkyara-Barkot tunnel, rescuers encountered another challenge on Sunday when the auger joint of the drilling machine broke. Over the past two days, the rescue team has been diligently working to address this issue by cutting through the blade lodged inside the rescue pipes and extracting it piece by piece.
