Labourers trapped in Silkyara tunnel were supplied veg pulao, matar-paneer, and chapatis slapped with butter for dinner Tuesday night through a food pipe stuck through the collapsed part of the structure.

The dinner, prepared under the doctor's supervision with less oil and spices to make it easily digestible, was supplied to the workers in 150 packets, cook Sanjit Rana said.

Fruits were sent to them earlier in the day, he said.

The 6-inch wide pipeline helped the rescuers capture trapped workers' first pictures in days.

The pictures, which were taken with an endoscopic flexi camera, showed workers were doing fine, authorities said. -- PTI
