Hopes of family members have risen after officials said only 12 metres of debris need to be drilled through to reach the trapped workers.
"They told me not to worry and that we would soon meet outside," says Indrajeet Kumar with a renewed sense of hope after he was able to speak to two of his family members who are among the 41 workers trapped inside the Silkyara tunnel here for over 10 days.
Indrajeet's elder brother Vishwajeet and relative Subodh Kumar are trapped inside the tunnel.
"Vishwajeet's three children are waiting for him to return and praying for him. I called him on Diwali but could not get through. When I contacted one of his colleagues, he told me that Vishwajeet got trapped inside the tunnel. I reached here the next day," said Indrajeet, who hails from Jharkhand's Giridih, on Wednesday.
