Assuring the families of the trapped workers that they will be rescued soon, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Monday said officials have been asked to stay in touch with the relatives of the trapped workers so that they do not face any inconvenience.
The state government will bear the expenses of people who want to visit Silkyara to enquire about their well being, he said.
