The rescue operation to locate the trapped workers inside the collapsed tunnel in Telangana has entered its 19th day, with authorities intensifying efforts despite challenging conditions. Specialized rescue teams, including the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and local authorities, continue to work around the clock to clear debris and reach those trapped inside.
The collapse, which occurred earlier this month, has raised concerns over safety measures in construction projects. Families of the missing workers remain anxious as rescue teams deploy advanced equipment to navigate through the rubble. Officials have assured that every possible measure is being taken to safely evacuate the workers.
As the operation stretches on, questions about construction standards and emergency preparedness in such infrastructure projects are being widely discussed. Authorities are expected to conduct a thorough investigation once the rescue efforts conclude.
