Bihar: Huge worries have been raised as a result of the collapse of an under-construction bridge in Bihar on two separate occasions in the past year. On Sunday, a portion of the Aguwani-Sultanganj Ganga bridge that was being constructed in the Bhagalpur district of the state at a cost of Rs 1,760 crore was destroyed by a collapse. Visuals were widely disseminated across social media, where users simultaneously highlighted concerns about the building’s overall quality.
The infrastructure company that is responsible for the construction of the Bihar bridge over the Ganga River is also the contractor for the expensive Signature Bridge project in Dwarka, in addition to two other projects in the state of Gujarat.
Government officials stated Monday that SP Singla Constructions Pvt Ltd.’s Gujarat projects, under investigation, are nearing completion.
