Although no injuries were reported in the latest incident involving the bridge that has been nine years in the making, the repeated collapses of various sections of the bridge raise serious questions about the quality of construction and the alignment of the project.

This latest collapse of the Sultanganj-Aguwani Ghat road bridge has intensified concerns, especially since the construction company responsible for the project SK Singla Construction Pvt. Ltd, has not yet provided any clarification regarding the incident.
