"'I am senior-most... I will be the last to come out...', this is what he told me," tunnel tunnel worker's brother Jaymal Singh Negi told NDTV.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday praised the leadership of tunnel foreman Gabbar Singh Negi, who was among the 41 workers rescued on Tuesday after 17 days in the collapsed Silkyara tunnel in Uttarakhand.
Speaking with the workers a day after their rescue, the Prime Minister said Mr Negi can be the subject of a case study as he led by example and kept the spirits of the labourers high while they were trapped in the tunnel for over two weeks.
"You should be the subject of a case study by some university. It should analyse the leadership qualities of Gabber Singh Negi, an ordinary man from a village, who kept his team together even in a time of crisis," PM Modi said.
