GROWING INFRASTRUCTURE CONCERN

In recent years, India has witnessed a disturbing increase in incidents of bridge collapses, triggering public outcry and raising serious concerns about the safety, quality, and accountability of infrastructure development across the country.

These tragedies are not only causing loss of human lives and property but also exposing systemic flaws in the way construction projects are planned, executed, and maintained.

Multiple bridge collapse incidents across states like Bihar, Gujarat, Maharashtra, and West Bengal have put the spotlight on India's crumbling infrastructure. In Bihar, within just a few days, several under-construction and newly built bridges collapsed, highlighting both design and execution failures. Such events are particularly shocking because they often involve projects meant to promote development and improve connectivity in rural and semi-urban areas. When these vital structures fail, they damage public trust and hinder progress.
