## Resource

A deadly tunnel collapse in Sikkim’s Himalayas has claimed ten lives and left seventeen missing after a suspected gas explosion, with rescue teams battling toxic fumes and treacherous conditions. Six company officials even became trapped while trying to help, highlighting the extreme dangers of construction in seismically active, mountainous terrain. This tragedy echoes a similar 2023 incident where 41 workers survived 17 days underground — a grim reminder that ancient methane pockets in the Teesta River basin may be a recurring hazard in India’s rush to build hydropower infrastructure.
