A body has been recovered from a flooded coal mine in the 3 Kilo area of Umrangso, where nine workers became trapped on January 6. Despite ongoing search and rescue efforts by teams, including a joint diving team and the Indian Navy deep divers, conditions remain harsh within the 300-foot-deep mine, significantly reducing chances of survival. The mine is believed to be illegal, and one person has been arrested in connection with the incident. The authorities are working to pump out water from the mine using high-power pumps, with the water level reported to have decreased to about 100 feet.

00:30This is my first time here, so I'm very nervous.
00:59I have just arrived at the farm.
01:01This was a joint operation.
01:03Army divers were with us.
01:05And one of the bodies has been received.
01:07It has just been brought here.
01:23Just a week ago, the farm was closed.
01:25We have been receiving the same
01:27and we have resumed our efforts.
01:32Our expectation and hope is that we reach our miners as soon as possible
01:42and rescue them.
01:57We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:02We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:07We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:12We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:17We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:22We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:27We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:32We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:37We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:42We will continue to do our best to help the miners.
02:48We have a lot of people with us in the joint operation
02:53but the success is yet to be seen.
02:56The Navy and the Repatriate delegation will have to reach Soon.
03:03Other entities are already taking up their responsibilities.
03:08We will do the best we can to rescue as many miners & helicopters as possible
03:14So, all the facilities and agencies are being set up so that we can get the people out.
03:18Our primary target is to get the people out of this place.
03:23Nine people have already been named.
03:26It can be more or less, but we have the names of nine people.
03:31So, our priority is to get these people out.
03:33There is a place called Taseel here.
03:39There is a coal mine here.
03:41And in that coal mine, the red coal mine, some miners have been trapped.
03:48The water has filled in it and they have not been able to get out.
03:52They are trapped in it.
03:53We reached here in the morning.
03:55Around 7.15, we started our operation here.
04:00First of all, we found out what is the water level in the well.
04:05The depth of the well is more than 300 feet.
04:09And the water level is more than 100 feet.
04:12Once again, our team has gone down and is searching.
04:17We will be very happy if we can trace the victims as much as possible.
04:23Because the purpose for which we have come here is to evacuate the trapped miners.
04:32Until we find them, we will not be at peace.
