In a bizarre twist given to a tragedy caused due to high-level corruption, now the Bihar Minister and brother of Deputy Chief Minister, Tej Pratap accused Bharatiya Janta Party of deliberately demolishing the Bhagalpur Khagaria Bridge.
The Minister for Environment, Forest and Climate Change in the Government of Bihar, Tej Pratap told reporters that his government has been developing the bridge but it is the BJP that does not want any development and thus causing damage to the bridge. Earlier, his younger brother and the Deputy CM, Tejaswi Yadav, while briefing the media, said that there is some bad omen that is causing all the harm to the development work in Bihar. “Bihar ko pata nahi kisi ki nazar lag gayi hai.”

So far, the Bihar government has not taken any responsibility for this tragedy where more than Rupees 17 crore of taxpayers’ money was submerged in the Ganga. The state government has ordered an inquiry into the collapse of the bridge. The inquiry will be conducted by a team of engineers and experts. The team will submit its report within a month.
On June 4, 2023, an under-construction bridge collapsed in Bhagalpur, Bihar. The bridge was being constructed to connect Khagaria and Bhagalpur districts. The collapse occurred at around 11:30 AM. No casualties have been reported so far.
The bridge was constructed by the Bihar State Road Construction Corporation. The bridge was supposed to be completed by December 2023. The cause of the collapse is still under investigation.
The collapse of the bridge has caused a major disruption to traffic between Khagaria and Bhagalpur. The only way to travel between the two districts is by road. The bridge collapse has also caused a major economic loss to the region.
The collapse of the bridge has raised serious questions about the quality of construction in Bihar. The state government has been criticized for its failure to ensure the quality of construction in the state. The bridge collapse is a major setback for the state government.
The state government has announced a compensation of Rs. 5 lakhs for the families of the deceased. The government has also announced a compensation of Rs. 1 lakh for the injured. The government has also announced that it will rebuild the bridge at its own cost.
