Action will be taken against the culprits
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said that action will be taken against the guilty in the case of collapse of the under-construction bridge of Khagaria-Aguwani-Sultanganj. Talking to reporters after garlanding the statue of Lok Nayak at Gandhi Maidan on the occasion of Sampoorna Kranti Diwas, the Chief Minister said that the structure of this under-construction bridge had collapsed once more. At that time also we had asked why this has happened. It was decided to construct this bridge in 2012 itself. It started in 2014. Got information that its structure has fallen again, immediately we told all the officers of the department to go and see and take strict action against the culprits.
The sound of falling of Aguwani-Sultanganj bridge was heard up to 2 km, work will start in three months after making a new DPR
Instructions given for bridge construction
CM said that the construction work of the bridge should be done in a strong way, we have also given instructions to the officials regarding this. Responding to a question related to the allegation being leveled by the opposition parties against the government, the Chief Minister said that they keep on saying whatever they want, their job is only to speak. The party has not given any place to the Deputy Chief Minister who was with us earlier, so something has to be said. They should also have come in today’s program. Those people were also associated with the JP movement.
