A bridge collapsed in Janjarpur in Madhubani district of Bihar on Friday. This is the 5th incident of bridge collapse in the last 11 days. A part of the long girder between the 77 meter long pillars collapsed on Friday. Not only this, to hide the negligence, the administration covered the broken part with plastic so that people could not know about this incident.
Let us tell you that this bridge is being constructed by the Rural Development Department of the Government of Bihar. This is being done under the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana. The estimated cost of this bridge is Rs 3 crore. The girder of the bridge, which was laid on June 26, collapsed on Friday. In this case, contractor Amarnath Jha said that this has happened due to the rising water level in the river. He said that the bridge will be rebuilt after the water level of the river decreases.
Tejasvi hits the target!
After the bridge collapse, the Nitish government has once again come under the target of the opposition. Tejashwi Yadav said that this is the fifth bridge collapse in Bihar in 9 days. The bridge under construction for years on the Bhootha river between Madhubani-Supaul collapsed. So why? If you try to understand, you will know, right? Let us tell you that the incidents of bridge collapse in Bihar have become a topic of discussion across the country. These accidents happening every day are raising questions on the construction work.
