In the aftermath of the tunnel collapse in Uttarakhand's Silkyara-Dandalgaon tunnel, where 41 workers have been trapped since November 12, efforts to address both the physical and mental well-being of those stranded have been initiated. Psychiatrist Abhishek Sharma, on-site, recommended activities like walking, light yoga, and regular communication to occupy their time. The workers, reached through an endoscopic camera, have shown high spirits, with the rescue team utilizing a larger pipeline for efficient delivery of air, food, and water. Officials express optimism about the potential for rescue within three days through horizontal drilling, employing a comprehensive five-option action plan.
