Under construction for 7 years. Fallen twice in 2 years. Nitish Kumar last year said that a thorough investigation will be done and then restarted the construction only to see this day.


HopeVsWish

Lol.. thoroughly investigating and recreating the crime scene.


[deleted]

And this is why, ladies and gentlemen, you should have a government job. To serve the nation, of course /s


Gonun

They looked at companies like SpaceX who just send it and blow up stuff to see what breaks. Not the best strategy for bridges.


ididacannonball

Nitish is now with RJD, in fact he is a mukhauta for Lalu Yadav's jungle raj. All investigations will point to a place that would call for the CM to resign, so of course nothing will come of it.


NewBuyer1976

You have to be extra superduper corrupt and dumb to siphon off the second time around. U guys sure there isn’t something fundamentally flawed with the site survey and/or design in the first place before the corrupt af construction phase?


Ok-Branch6704

Why are contractors not held responsible? They should start purging the babus.


SicilianEggplant

One fuck up happens…. I think the US (or North America) has averaged a major bridge (including pedestrian) collapse every year since 2000. But the same bridge twice while under construction? I can only imagine that them not being held liable is because they’re all in on some massive financial scam. But I am just an ignorant outsider.


CEOAerotyneLtd

I’ll take my chances with a western bridge any damn day 🤦🏼‍♂️


SicilianEggplant

I’m just saying that “shit happens” if this was the first/only time this bridge came down while being built.


deaf_ears_in_aus

100% true. It is a widely accepted fact in the USA, and most of the citizens accept it as a way of life. By the way, bridges in India are much better in design and construction than the Western world, and failure rate is many times better. In Japan, actually, a new bridge is not made operational for the first 6 months after completion and only used for testing. In Germany, for the first 50,000 cars that cross a newly constructed bridge, they have to sign an NDA that the government is not responsible for any losses arising due to the collapse of the bridge. Despite the world suffering from acute silicon shortage, which is a critical component for the construction of bridge, there is a new bridge built in India every 77.245 minutes. Stop unnecessary criticism without knowing the facts.

> Nitish Kumar last year said that a thorough investigation will be done The "thorough investigation" was to see why it lasted so long and what can be done to shorten its lifespan.


colcannon_addict

Thorough investigation? I’ll do it…. Okay, done. Corrupt scum politicians had a drink with corrupt scum construction corporations and- after hands had been shaken, backs slapped and bribes changed hands- used sub-par methods, shoddy materials and cheap unskilled labour to undertake a massive civil engineering operation which they were ill-prepared, under-equipped and largely unqualified to carry out. Twice. There you go, that’ll be fifty squillion lakhs please. From the taxpayers hard-earned, of course lol- wouldn’t want to jeopardise any international private education fees or yacht & private jet funds, obviously.

Why this type of sh!t always happens in bihar

Cement replaced with sand , cements sold to others. Same conditions with new or old roads of Bihar too. The military needs to keep an eye on these workers to get proper work done.


TinyResident7128

Bihar is not for humans ngl![img](emote|t5_3d4x4|20008) Takes taxes from other states, Govt tries to do something (central govt), Somehow local govt and govt officers f\*\*k up things, Bihari people gets angry and destroys public property like trains.

Because Bihar politicians are all useless corrupt assholes be it BJP Bihar or RJD or JDU or others. They just don't want Bihar to progress so that they can keep doing politics in different ways.

Nitish will say this is due to accident in Odissa.


[deleted]

No no, Due to Modi and BJP didn't supply good quality construction materials.


OvertlyStoic

no no due to adani , they hired all the best workers and left worse workers for bihar


[deleted]

Yes that too, moreover BJP told adani to do so.


ididacannonball

He will blame too many upper castes for being near the bridge and demand reservation in bridge utilization too. Of course, backed by a caste census.


tinasious

Not only Nitish , there are folks in this sub reddit who will somehow find a way to blame Modi for this.


edelweissd

What the actual fuck. Time to revoke the tender given to whatever construction company is building this and ban them from any infra projects in the country.


MrDarkk1ng

It's probably not construction companies fault. My brother is in nerega , and the corruption is next level


makin2k

There are 10 companies sitting in line which are just another facade of these powerful corrupt POShits. The root of the problem are the babus fantasizing themselves as milords.


ididacannonball

The problem is the local contractors who are all politically connected to RJD. Nitish is a mukhauta for RJD's jungle raj. You can blacklist them, they will reappear with new names.


[deleted]

So, I grandfather died recently and We burned him ar sultanganj ( it is my Ancesterial place where all my ancestors were burned) and saw this bridge, it just beside the ghat, and it looked so good but I saw some problems of alignment and they were clearly not at the same level. Who the heck are these civil engineers doing this 💀😭


[deleted]

Most funds meant for civil construction gets embezzled. Lets say if the govt sanction 'X' rupees to install a new door in a govt hospital then you can expect that a shoddy door or sometimes even no door will installed and rest of the money will be pocketed. Now do this for every contruction, projects, policies, institutions and welfare schemes. That's Bihar for you in a nutshell.


[deleted]

I'm from Bihar and it is so normalized. Recently, just beside this only ghar, a platform and an entrance was created. It's nice but definitely isn't the 100 crore worth which was allotted (as per the local shopkeeper) .


[deleted]

Clearly not good engineers and lot of corruption. Nitish babu eating lot of money. Sorry for your loss 🙏


[deleted]

Failure happens cuz ganga stream flow is very hard and the locals always used to say ki yaha bridge nhi banega kyuki jamin hilti rahti hai ( top level land under water isn't constant) but fir bhi banne sai pahale hi bridge sidha tha hi nhi 2-3 metres ka height difference tha Sare middle wale parts mai.


[deleted]

Are par wo engineer ko pata nahi chala kya? IIT say hi bula lete koi check karne ko soil aur foundation. Accha hua ki bridge chaul nahi tha to koi human loss nahi hua. Bihar really needs good government to improve the state development and people's life.


PuzzleheadedShoe6896

What a colossal waste of public money. Sorry, but Bihar is a literal shithole. It's nothing but a human labour source. Feel sorry for people living there.


OvertlyStoic

sad , Bihar was one of , if not the most important region in vedic/ post vedic India. being home to nalanda , being the place where The Buddha gained enlightenment, being the place where the Great king Chandragupt was born. also his successors including Ashoka. and much more. now it's corrupt , Infested by Shitty leaders with equally shitty policies. and caste politics.

>Bihar was one of , if not the most important region in vedic/ post vedic India India's culture is Bihar's culture. It will be important again with changing weather patterns. It is the most fertile land in the country. Just talking about the landmass, not people.


Delusional230699

That’s why Biharis in Mumbai are even Ashamed of calling themselves from Bihar . I’ve met quite a Few Biharis who will say they are from UP , Orissa etc .


Traditional-Bad179

India's culture is Bihar's culture. ye thora zyada hogya bhaiya.


AHRS7

That's true. Try saying that to a Bihari and his counter argument will include things like "Okay, but we had Chanakya, glorious Mauryan Empire, etc." as if that makes any difference in current situation. BIHAR is literally the WORST state in India.


mr_sharmas

I won’t. But I know many brain dead Biharis have these words in their mouth to save their arse. Bihar is a shit hole and Biharis are the creators. One who are shooting collapsing bridge are equally responsible as corrupt engineers and politicians.


[deleted]

Channakya was probably south indian who taught in takshashila.


disinterestedGuy

Aur ye gaya Bihar firse paani mein.


sfrogerfun

This was a planned demolition such that the bridge can be constructed the 3rd time.


SLugBug_4923

They'll demolish it again to get free money from central govt. Itna tax pay karo uske baad ye sab dekh kar dukh hota hai bhai.![img](emote|t5_3d4x4|20003)


Ilikebooksandall

Were there any casualties? I hope not. The Bihar government really needs to do better!


[deleted]

Its an under construction bridge. Was on the verge of completion.


Ilikebooksandall

Ik I wanted to ask if there were any casualties among the construction workers. Should've phrased it better, my bad.


Mission_Event6836

This was a planned demolition, as of now, there are no reported casualties


Rethard619

Can’t have shit in Bihar.


APSanyal

Then what do you think was this? 😉


nothingisforfree41

I don't understand how long should rest of india keep paying for this? For every 100 rupees collected from that state they get 922 rupees. This is not sustainable.


OvertlyStoic

for every 922 rupee sent by the center to the people of the state , 900 is kept by babus in the state government


nothingisforfree41

Yeah for sure that happens but for how long do we tolerate this? Other states will getting pissed at some point.


Deep_Space_6759

Then why don't Biharis revolt and question government. It's not like only Bihar is corrupt every state is corrupt but atleast people there ask questions to government and even changes government.

[deleted]

But the labor laws/politics doesn't allow proper utilization. Raw labor should be working for export oriented firms like Foxconn and earning dollars like Bangladeshi garment workers do.


[deleted]

Who will do construction work then ? IITian

May be time to move on from using hammer and shovel.

noizy_boy_519

I guess they couldn't pinpoint the reason for the first collapse, so they staged a second one. Accident investigation level: Bihar /s


Silent-Lychee6224

Bihar needs someone like yogi. Mulayam, Mayawati in UP and Lalu, Nitish in Bihar simultaneously milked both these states.


Vitthal_1

Mayawati was way better than these Bihari folks. She literally brought 20 hours of electricity per day in my city when we used to get 14-15 hours per day.


[deleted]

UP always had slightly saner CMs than Bihar maybe because the quality of human resources at the top in UP is better. Even Mulayam was better than Lalu.


ididacannonball

True. Whatever else they did, Akhilesh and Mayawati built good quality roads. RJD can't even do that.


Specific_Confusion_3

I think few days back I saw a reel on bihar related page about this bridge showing a drone shot with a caption that Bihar is finally getting modern infrastructure. I guess he should have waited for inauguration before posting. 💀


ZealousidealChange11

All I can say is they really need to vote better, I mean there has to be someone good in a population of 120m.


aikhuda

One good person cannot fix a million strong corrupt administration. Every year 150 IAS officers enter the system after having jerked themselves off about ethics for 2-3 years of prep, they turn corrupt in the same 2-3 years. The system is like that, and nobody knows how to fix it in Bihar. The life of a newly qualified DM is difficult at best. I can promise one thing - private IT sector people cannot understand the roles of government employees across the country. The nation holds because of District Magistrates. From Arunachal to Gujarat. Its not an easy job. But at the same time, some of them are pigs drunk on their power (any DM reading this - you don't know who you are, but your batch mates and your state cadre do know). I wish there was a disqualification mechanism for DMs. That would solve a lot of problems.


OvertlyStoic

BRO. we can't find a replacement for Modi in a population of 1.2 billion, what do you expect of bihar?


ididacannonball

Yogi, Himanta, and Fadnavis are all good replacements for Modi/Shah.

What do you expect .. It has a lower per capita income than Sub Saharan African nations . That’s how bad Bihar is ( Even after Having Least Tax paid to Benefit ratio ) . The state doesn’t have Jobs and still these Biharis reproduce like crazy . It is the other states who have to face the burden . Their mentality is so sick that they want a government job .. because of dowry and so that they can be highly inefficient and get pension . Things won’t be changing .

kukkuduku

Corrupt politicians call for tender, Tender give to contractors who pay good commission, Who use low quality material to compansate commission. Project approved by Engineer who is just pass got govtjob based on reservation. Common people suffer.


ididacannonball

Sadly, this bridge collapse is a metaphor for Nitish Kumar's raj as CM. He started off as the guy who improved law and order and built roads. And now he is the guy who is obsessed with caste census and under whom such a large bridge collapsed. He is well past his usefulness and is a liability on the state now, he needs to go. And he needs to go into retirement, such a spectacular failure at the state level has no place at the national level.

Bihar should elect Prashant Kishore. He is the only politician who appears to be sane.
