Barely three weeks after an under-construction bridge over the Ganga collapsed in Bihar’s Khagaria district, a portion of another bridge in Kishanganj district caved-in on June 24, an official said.
In the incident, which took place around 400 km from State capital Patna, a pillar of the bridge over river Mechi collapsed, said Arvind Kumar, project director of National Highway Authority of India (NHAI).
"The under-construction bridge on NH-327E would have linked Kishanganj and Katihar upon completion", the official said.
