9 miners have been trapped since 6 Jan after an illegal rat-hole mining site was inundated by underground water
Army divers from the elite 21 Para Special Forces recovered the body of a miner from the flooded coal mine in Umrangso of the Dima Hasao district early on Wednesday.
According to the state government, nine miners have been trapped since January 6 after an illegal rat-hole mining site was inundated by underground water.
The recovery follows nearly 48 hours of tireless efforts by a multi-agency team battling adverse conditions and the inherent dangers of the narrow, waterlogged mine shafts.
Confirming the development on social media, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma wrote: "21 Para divers have just recovered a lifeless body from the bottom of the well. Our thoughts and prayers are with the grieving family."
