Almost all national and state agencies deployed in the operation following the February 22 roof collapse have been withdrawn. Only skeletal staff are now monitoring and managing the tunnel infrastructure
Army, Navy, National Disaster Response Force, and State Disaster Response Force are tirelessly working to locate and rescue the workers trapped in the tunnel
To speed up the rescue efforts, the authorities are implementing a well-structured plan, utilising advanced technology. The water inside the accident site is being pumped out, and debris is being cleared using plasma gas cutters, officials said
Reportedly, the bodies are being retrieved from the silt and debris accumulated in the tunnel and are likely to be shifted to Nagarkurnool District Hospital
