Silkyara-Barkot tunnel work to restart soon
Anshu Manish Khalkho, director (Administration and Finance), NHIDCL, said, ?One or two accidents do not stop any process. Everything will go simultaneously. Audit, inquiry and the project work will begin soon.?
?We cannot foresee who did the wrong...but that shouldn?t hamper the process (project),? he said.
?We will first remove the 60 metres of debris in the collapsed portion and re-establish it. It may take a few months, four to six months,? he added.
?This incident was highlighted because it trapped the workers. Such incidents are normal in any tunnel construction. It depends upon the profile of the tunnel and geology. The shear zone area is there is this tunnel,? said Khalkho.
