Rescuers on Monday pushed through a six-inch-wide pipeline through the collapsed tunnel in Uttarakhand in order to supply larger quantities of food and other essentials to the workers trapped for the past eight days.
Earlier, a four-inch tube was being used to supply food such as dry fruit, medicines and oxygen into the section of the tunnel beyond the rubble. The new pipeline will help supply food items such as roti and sabji to the workers.
