	Description:		All 41 men trapped in a tunnel in Uttarakhand's Silkyara were rescued Tuesday evening. The 17-day multi-agency operation relied on the banned rat-hole mining technique in the final stretch after high-tech machines failed to drill through the nearly 60 metres of rock that threatened to bury the workers. The extraction process took some time to allow each worker to re-acclimatise to surface conditions, where the temperature is around 14 degrees Celsius at this time. The workers were brought out on specially modified stretchers; these were lowered manually down a two-metre-wide pipe inserted into holes drilled into the hillside. Watch Left Right and Centre.
