Which one of the following statements about 'Silkyara Bend-Barkot Tunnel' is not correct?

Explanation

The Silkyara Bend-Barkot Tunnel is a 4.5 km long double-lane tunnel located in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand. It is a critical component of the Chardham Mahamarg Pariyojana, designed to provide all-weather connectivity and reduce the travel distance between Silkyara and Barkot on the way to Yamunotri. The tunnel is situated along National Highway 134 (NH-134). The project is being implemented by the National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (NHIDCL), which is a fully owned company of the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, not by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The tunnel gained global attention in November 2023 during a successful 17-day rescue operation of 41 workers trapped inside following a structural collapse.
