‘Leaving No Stone Unturned’: PM Modi Offers Prayers For Workers Trapped In Uttarkashi Tunnel

PM Modi said that the government and all the agencies together are leaving no stone unturned to evacuate the workers trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel.

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday extended heartfelt prayers and support for the workers trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel for the last two weeks.

PM Modi while attending the 'Koti Deepotsavam' programme at NTR stadium in Hyderabad, said that the government and all the agencies together are leaving no stone unturned to evacuate the workers trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel.

Rescue operations are being carried out since a portion of the Silkyara tunnel in the Uttarkashi district of the northern state collapsed following a landslide on November 12, leaving 41 workers trapped behind a huge mound of debris.
Addressing the event, PM Modi said, "We should remember the men, trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel, in our prayers for their speedy evacuation."
 
In a post on X, the Prime Minister said, "Today when we are praying to Gods and Goddesses and talking about the welfare of humanity, we also have to give place in our prayers to those labourers who are stuck in a tunnel in Uttarakhand for the last two weeks."

He said that the government and all the agencies together are leaving no stone unturned to get them out of the crisis. "But we have to complete this relief and rescue work very cautiously," he said.

"In this campaign, nature is constantly giving us challenges, but we are standing firm and trying round the clock," the Prime Minister said
