Rescue operations to free 40 workers stuck in a collapsed tunnel in northern India have entered the third day. More than a hundred rescuers are at the scene using heavy machinery to help those trapped. Excavators have been removing debris since Sunday morning from the site. Officials said they have established contact with those behind the rubble. The tunnel collapsed in the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand. The 4.5-km passage is part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Char Dham road project, meant to improve connectivity to the country's most popular Hindu shrines.
