Suspension bridge in India collapses for a second time
NEW DELHI - A suspension bridge being built in India’s poorest state collapsed for the second time in 14 months, with one person reported missing, Reuters partner ANI reported on Monday.
The bridge was being built over the River Ganges in the Bhagalpur district of India’s eastern state of Bihar.
Construction was scheduled to be completed in 2019 but there were multiple delays, including those caused by an earlier collapse on April 30, 2022, due to strong winds and rain.
“There was a massive stir over here, it felt like there was a blast. Later, we found out the bridge had collapsed,” said Mr Rakesh Kumar, a local resident.
Eight men were on the bridge at the time of its collapse on Sunday, with one guard reported missing.
ANI footage showed a section of the bridge partially submerged in water, with only some pillars and cables jutting out to indicate where that portion of the structure once stood.
