GUWAHATI: A possibly lone survivor among 22 people on board a truck that plunged into a gorge in a remote location of Arunachal Pradesh Monday night clambered out of the wreckage, climbed 200m and trudged nearly 4km to reach a BRO camp late Wednesday to report the tragedy almost 48 hours later.The victims – 19 bodies had been retrieved until Thursday evening – were all labourers from Assam being ferried to a site in Anjaw district, bordering China, when the accident occurred along Hayuliang-Chaglagam Road. Army teams continue to search for the other two workers.Cops, NDRF men worked for hrs to locate wreckage of truck, bodiesIt wasn’t immediately clear if the critically injured survivor included the truck driver among the 22 that he said were involved in the crash, officials said. He has been shifted to Assam Medical College and Hospital in Dibrugarh, around 260km from Hayuliang.Nang Chingni Choupoo, in charge of the Anjaw district disaster management department, told TOI that Army teams used ropes to descend into the deep gorge and trace the wreckage. The 19 bodies found so far are still to be brought up.”Since the Army personnel do not have specialised equipment to carry the bodies, an NDRF team from Dibrugarh is being sent there with the required equipment. The operation will resume Friday morning,” Choupoo said. “For now, we are assuming there were 22 people, unless the driver wasn’t counted. The mangled truck lies upside down and rescuers need to cut through the metal to determine if anyone is trapped inside.”The Assam govt has deputed a joint team of the Tinsukia civil and police administration to travel to the area and coordinate with Army and Arunachal Pradesh officials. The nearest camp, which the injured survivor reached, belongs to the General Reserve Engineer Force under which BRO operates. Chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said both states were working closely to rescue survivors, if any, and get the victims’ bodies home.Defence PRO Lt Col M Rawat said multiple search and rescue columns of the Army, medical teams, GREF representatives, local police and NDRF personnel worked for hours to locate the wreckage and the bodies.Initial reports suggested the workers were from Tinsukia and travelling to Chaglagam for work.

NEW DELHI: An agreement for cooperation on rare earths and critical minerals, bilateral trade target of billion by 2030 and Global South solidarity in technology that, according to PM Narendra Modi, must be inclusive and act as a bridge for shared progress were among the highlights of Modi’s bilateral meeting with Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Saturday.Modi said the critical minerals agreement, which could potentially lower dependence on China, was a major step towards building resilient supply chains. Significantly, the leaders discussed the US Supreme Court judgment striking down President Donald Trump’s global tariffs and agreed that both sides needed to study its implications.“So, we will essentially be in wait-and-watch mode to see how the administration responds to this judgment, whether any further steps are taken and to study the implications for our trade,” said MEA secretary (east) P Kumaran at a media briefing.Lula mentioned trade unilateralism in his remarks and also said that in a turbulent world, both sides were required to strengthen and deepen their strategic dialogue. “India and Brazil are crucial voices at the UN, at the WTO and G20,” he said, while also underlining the significance of cooperation under BRICS.Modi and Lula focused on energy transition and defence and security cooperation that the PM said was a perfect example of mutual trust and strategic harmony. “We will continue to strengthen this win-win partnership further,” the PM said. In all, India and Brazil signed nine agreements, including one in the field of mining for steel supply chain, and also announced that Brazil would extend business visas for ordinary Indian passport holders to 10 years.Modi said that the expansion of India’s trade agreement with Mercosur, a South American trading bloc, will further strengthen economic cooperation and that bilateral cooperation in the field of te-chnology and innovation was important for both countries as well as the Global South.“We are also prioritising our cooperation in areas such as artificial intelligence, supercomputers, semiconductors and blockchain,” he said, adding that energy cooperation too had been a strong pillar of the relationship and there was now increasing cooperation in renewable energy, ethanol blending and sustainable aviation fuel.“As democratic countries, we will continue to advance the priorities and aspirations of the Global South. When India and Brazil work together, the voice of the Global South becomes stronger and more confident,” said the PM.Lula said that the meeting was one between a digital superpower and a renewable energy superpower.Brazil joined India in strongly condemning cross-border terrorism, along with the Pahalgam terrorist attack and the Red Fort blast. According to a joint statement, the leaders reaffirmed defence as an integral pillar of the India-Brazil Strategic Partnership and underscored the potential for co-design and co-production by linking India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat with Brazil’s defence industrial base.As expected, there was a strong focus on UN reforms, particularly in the Security Council, including its expansion in both permanent and non-permanent membership categories, for which both countries have been working under the G4 framework that also includes Japan and Germany. The joint statement said that the leaders reaffirmed their commitment for mutual support for permanent membership of the two countries in an expanded UNSC and India welcomed Brazil’s support for India’s candidature for a non-permanent seat for the 2028-29 term.Kumaran said Lula gave a detailed presentation on Brazil’s substantial critical minerals and rare earth reserves. “He said only 30% of their reserves have been explored and there is substantial scope for exploration, processing minerals and also using them. He said Brazil would value India’s partnership,” said the official.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosTrump Raises Worldwide Tariffs From 10% To 15% A Day After Supreme Court Ruling’We Will Continue To Fight’: Brazil President Lula Backs India’s UN Security Council Reform Push‘Swayed By Foreign Interests’: Trump Slams SCOTUS; Attacks US Firms, Attorneys With India TiesExplained: How US tariffs on India evolved amid Supreme Court ruling and trade disputes’Studying Developments For Their Implications’: India After US Top Court’s Order On Trump TariffsIndia, Brazil Sign Rare Earths Deal; Modi Calls It ‘Major Step’ Towards Supply Chain ResilienceBrazil President Lula Calls For Stronger Global South With India To Prevent A New Cold War DividePM Modi Sets 20 Billion Dollar Trade Target As India And Brazil Call Ties A Win Win PartnershipAI Summit Protest By Youth Congress May Be Linked To Nepal Gen Z Conspiracy Plot: Delhi PoliceI To The Power Of AI: Youngest Keynote Speaker Ranvir Sachdeva Wows India AI Summit With Bold Vision123PhotostoriesFrom recalling their dating days to Gautami’s divorce phase and Ram calling himself an absent father; Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor get candid about marriage and kidsSunday binge watch: These Hulu dramas are a must tryFrom ‘Emily in Paris’ to ‘Made in Heaven’: 5 times OTT dramas redefined fashionZodiac signs that may face relationship challenges in 20268 Indian tea-time snacks you can air fryer instead of deep fry6 tandoori-style dishes made easily in an air fryer7 iconic paneer starters for guests and instant cravingsFrom decorating the house to preparing Iftaar: Dipika Kakar and Shoaib Ibrahim share their Ramadan preparationsBengaluru to Goa by Vande Bharat in just over 12 hours?

In all, India and Brazil signed nine agreements, including one in the field of mining for steel supply chain, and also announced that Brazil would extend business visas for ordinary Indian passport holders to 10 years.Modi said that the expansion of India’s trade agreement with Mercosur, a South American trading bloc, will further strengthen economic cooperation and that bilateral cooperation in the field of te-chnology and innovation was important for both countries as well as the Global South.“We are also prioritising our cooperation in areas such as artificial intelligence, supercomputers, semiconductors and blockchain,” he said, adding that energy cooperation too had been a strong pillar of the relationship and there was now increasing cooperation in renewable energy, ethanol blending and sustainable aviation fuel.“As democratic countries, we will continue to advance the priorities and aspirations of the Global South. When India and Brazil work together, the voice of the Global South becomes stronger and more confident,” said the PM.Lula said that the meeting was one between a digital superpower and a renewable energy superpower.Brazil joined India in strongly condemning cross-border terrorism, along with the Pahalgam terrorist attack and the Red Fort blast. According to a joint statement, the leaders reaffirmed defence as an integral pillar of the India-Brazil Strategic Partnership and underscored the potential for co-design and co-production by linking India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat with Brazil’s defence industrial base.As expected, there was a strong focus on UN reforms, particularly in the Security Council, including its expansion in both permanent and non-permanent membership categories, for which both countries have been working under the G4 framework that also includes Japan and Germany. The joint statement said that the leaders reaffirmed their commitment for mutual support for permanent membership of the two countries in an expanded UNSC and India welcomed Brazil’s support for India’s candidature for a non-permanent seat for the 2028-29 term.Kumaran said Lula gave a detailed presentation on Brazil’s substantial critical minerals and rare earth reserves. “He said only 30% of their reserves have been explored and there is substantial scope for exploration, processing minerals and also using them. He said Brazil would value India’s partnership,” said the official.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosTrump Raises Worldwide Tariffs From 10% To 15% A Day After Supreme Court Ruling’We Will Continue To Fight’: Brazil President Lula Backs India’s UN Security Council Reform Push‘Swayed By Foreign Interests’: Trump Slams SCOTUS; Attacks US Firms, Attorneys With India TiesExplained: How US tariffs on India evolved amid Supreme Court ruling and trade disputes’Studying Developments For Their Implications’: India After US Top Court’s Order On Trump TariffsIndia, Brazil Sign Rare Earths Deal; Modi Calls It ‘Major Step’ Towards Supply Chain ResilienceBrazil President Lula Calls For Stronger Global South With India To Prevent A New Cold War DividePM Modi Sets 20 Billion Dollar Trade Target As India And Brazil Call Ties A Win Win PartnershipAI Summit Protest By Youth Congress May Be Linked To Nepal Gen Z Conspiracy Plot: Delhi PoliceI To The Power Of AI: Youngest Keynote Speaker Ranvir Sachdeva Wows India AI Summit With Bold Vision123PhotostoriesFrom recalling their dating days to Gautami’s divorce phase and Ram calling himself an absent father; Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor get candid about marriage and kidsSunday binge watch: These Hulu dramas are a must tryFrom ‘Emily in Paris’ to ‘Made in Heaven’: 5 times OTT dramas redefined fashionZodiac signs that may face relationship challenges in 20268 Indian tea-time snacks you can air fryer instead of deep fry6 tandoori-style dishes made easily in an air fryer7 iconic paneer starters for guests and instant cravingsFrom decorating the house to preparing Iftaar: Dipika Kakar and Shoaib Ibrahim share their Ramadan preparationsBengaluru to Goa by Vande Bharat in just over 12 hours?
