Former advisor to PMO, Bhaskar Khulbe expressed hope that the trapped workers will be rescued today evening. "The situation is much better now. Last night, we had to work on two things.
First, we had to revamp the platform of the machine... Parsons Company had done the ground penetration radar, through which we got to know that for the next 5 meters, there is no metallic obstruction. This means that our drilling should be smooth. When we were taking out the debris, we got two mangled pipes," he told the media.
