'How was leak overlooked?' Uttarakhand Congress chief demands probe into Pipalkoti tunnel tragedy
NEW DELHI: Uttarakhand Pradesh Congress Committee president Ganesh Godiyal on Saturday criticised the Pushkar Singh Dhami government over the Pipalkoti tunnel accident in Chamoli district, questioning how a reported leak at the site was allegedly overlooked despite workers claiming it had persisted for some time. The criticism came as the death toll in the under-construction THDC tunnel accident rose to eight, with two workers still trapped and rescue operations continuing.
