The Srisailam Left Bank Canal tunnel project beneath the Amrabad Tiger Reserve faces uncertainty as the Forest Department has not been informed about the new tunnelling technology proposed by the State government. Following a February mishap that killed eight workers, tunnelling was suspended and an aerial electromagnetic survey was launched to study geological conditions.
Thirty-one workers were safely rescued after a tunnel under construction in Los Angeles partially collapsed. The incident occurred 8–9.7 km from the entrance. Paramedics evaluated 27 workers as emergency crews responded. The tunnel is intended to carry wastewater
Union Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways, VK Singh, assessed the ongoing rescue operation in the collapsed Silkyara tunnel in Uttarkashi, expressing the government's commitment to complete it within two to three days.
