A major tragedy has struck Vadodara, Gujarat, as the Gambhira bridge collapsed, sending vehicles plunging into the Mahisagar river. At least 12 people have died in the incident. The bridge, several decades old, was reportedly repaired last year and a Rs. 212 crore replacement was greenlit by the Chief Minister three months ago. Prime Minister Modi announced compensation for the victims’ families. The incident raises questions about infrastructure maintenance and safety across India, with several bridge collapses reported in recent months. An expert highlights issues including poor asset management, inadequate human resources for maintenance, and the need for regulated civil and structural engineering professions.
