India tunnel collapse: Rescue efforts continue in Uttarakhand – BBC News
The lives of 40 Indian labourers, who have been trapped in a tunnel for more than 72 hours, hang in the balance as authorities try to rescue them.
The workers were building the tunnel in northern Uttarakhand state when a part of it caved in due to a landslide on Sunday.
State and federal rescue teams have been using a massive drill to push through the debris to reach the men.
Officials have been able to establish contact with the workers.

Hawk Fire wildfire in Nevada expected to rage for another two days, say officials | BBC News
US fire crews have reported progress in their efforts to tackle a large wildfire menacing the city of Reno, Nevada – saying the blaze is about a quarter contained.
The Hawk Fire, which began on Saturday, had spread over 15,000 acres by Monday, firefighters said.
Evacuation orders remain in place for 23,000 people, though other residents have now been allowed to return to their homes. Tens of thousands of other residents have been told to be ready to leave at any moment.
Officials are concerned that gusts of wind could drive the flames towards more homes. Unfavourable weather conditions are forecast for the next two days, meaning the fire could continue to burn during that timeframe.

Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.
China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.
Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.
Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.

|ndians have no regard for |ndian life. In other videos, there is one |ndian worker saying that "we are still TRYING whatever techniques we have" (trial and error method) , which means that, every |ndian workers in this video were used as sacrificial lambs or the guinea 🐖 for their tunnelling experiments. 🤭 |ndians have no regard for |ndian life because they have 1.42 billions of them and each and every low caste |ndians especially the dalits are expendable. As you can see in this video, their enginneers/builders look so inexperienced, new equipment were not even tested before usage and the pace of the rescue mission were very slow. Obviously, they are not well prepared or equipped with the necessary skills and technology to deal with this kind of situation.🤭 Yet, these |ndians are making so many propagandas telling the world that their engineering skills/infrastructures are top notch #1 all over the internet. 🤭Pride comes before the fall, |ndians. Remember that.

Only Workers Trapped?? No Safety Officers, No Supervisory staff, or Tunnel Constructing authorities..?? That means safety was at stake. Only Blah blah blah. This is the reality of every Indian Project. Now a junior officer or a junior Engineer will be made scapegoat.

1. Pedestrian bridges collapse, killed 160
2. Suspension bridge collapse, twice in a year.
3. Mizoram railway bridge, killed 30
4. Train collided in Andhra Pradesh, killed 14
5. Train collided in Odisha, killed 296.
6. Now this tunnel.
All in one year, and i don't count bridges and roads that collapse because of flood and landslide. they are uncountable.Such a horrible construction level.And they say India became superpower in 2020.

I truly hope all are saved soon. But enough with all this religious hand wringing and appeals to god to save them. If a god does exist, why did he allow this to happen in the first place (and no it is not free will)?!
