Description
Day after day the families have been waiting, praying their relatives trapped behind tonnes of debris in a collapsed Indian road tunnel for 11 days will escape safely. As they watch the tunnel entrance, where bulldozers and excavators are busy as efforts to drill through the vast piles of tumbled earth, rock and concrete continue, they plan how they will celebrate when their loved ones are free. "The day they will come out of the tunnel, it will be the biggest, happiest day for us," said Chanchal Singh Bisht, 35, whose 24-year-old cousin Pushkar Singh Ary is trapped inside.
