A devastating bridge collapse has resulted in multiple vehicles plunging into a river, leading to loss of lives and ongoing rescue efforts. The incident, captured on video, shows the human face of the tragedy with a mother desperately crying out, ‘My son is drowning, save him.’ The 40-year-old bridge, which had been sanctioned Rs. 212 crore for repairs, was reportedly in a dilapidated condition. Questions are being raised about the bridge’s stability report and why it remained open to traffic, including heavy vehicles, despite concerns. Local authorities had recently inspected the bridge due to damaged walls and roads causing traffic jams. The collapse occurred when one span of the bridge gave way, with at least five vehicles falling into the river. The incident highlights potential failures in infrastructure maintenance and the urgent need for accountability.
