In latest news from Dehradun, with back-to-back hiccups hindering the evacuation of the 41 workers trapped for a fortnight in a partially collapsed tunnel at Silkyara in Uttarkashi district, the State tourism and culture minister Satpal Maharaj said that the evacuation mission would be successfully accomplished with the blessing of Lord Kedarnath, Lord Badrinath and the local deity Bokh Naag. He further said that the rescue operation might continue for a few more days and added that the workers were safe and fine being supplied with hot meals and clothes. He further said that all the people of the country have been praying for their safe return and the Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been taking daily updates about the rescue operation.
