All these are PWD projects that have almost 0 oversight from even the state governments, let alone central governments. The system without fail always works like this -> local babu MLA parasite awards contract to his friend/shell company. This village construction company usually has 0 expertise, manpower or machinery to build the project but will underbid others to win the L1 tender. The project without fail will overshoot the cost and deadline by years. If built, the works are so shoddy that it will wash away within the first week or monsoon. Babu calls for new tenders to repair/fix the original mess and the cycle repeats. Nothing short of death penalties to all involved will fix this mess, because there is no short term fix for such deeply rooted corruption.
and calling this bridge as under construction is misleading. It has been abandoned for years.
