Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Kumar Bhaskar Varma Bridge over the mighty Brahmaputra River on Saturday. The new six-lane bridge will directly connect Guwahati with North Guwahati, making daily travel faster, smoother and far less stressful for thousands of commuters. Built at an estimated cost of around Rs 3,300 crore, the bridge is part of a larger 8.4-km connectivity corridor designed to strengthen Assam’s urban transport network.
