I want to say to the friends who were trapped in the tunnel that your courage and patience are inspiring everyone. I wish you all well and good health. It is a matter of great satisfaction that after a long wait, these friends of ours will now meet their loved ones.” “The patience and courage that all these families have shown in this challenging time cannot be appreciated enough.

The tunnel collapse occurred on November 12, causing debris to fall in a 60-meter stretch on the Silkyara side and trapping the labourers in the ongoing construction. Harpal Singh, Project Head of Zoji-la Tunnel, stated that the breakthrough occurred at precisely 7:05 pm, with the Uttarakhand CM and Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways and Civil Aviation Gen VK Singh present at the site. CM Dhami commended the morale and courage of the workers and rescue personnel. Simultaneously, NDRF and SDRF personnel entered the tunnel for ongoing rescue operations. Earlier in the day, CM Dhami and other officials arrived at the Silkyara tunnel rescue site, emphasising the urgency of the situation caused by the tunnel collapse on November 12.
