India tunnel collapse: 40 workers trapped as huge rescue mission underway

Rescuers are desperately trying to reach 40 construction workers trapped by a landslide at a construction project in northern India.

The trapped workers were building part of the Chardham all-weather road when it collapsed in the early hours of Sunday.

Police said that all of the workers are safe and that they have been supplied with oxygen and water through a pipe line.
