In what could mean a ray of hope for the rescue agencies, two persons have been found alive, so far, Chamoli District Magistrate Swati Bhadoriya said.
The rescue agencies began drilling through the debris in Tapovan tunnel to reach to 30 people who are believed to be trapped inside. The operation was stalled after the Dhuliganga river began swelling again.
