Adding to the concern is the accumulation of soil, silt, vegetation, and other debris beneath the bridge. Locals point out that such blockages could obstruct the natural flow of water during heavy rainfall, increasing pressure on the structure and accelerating its deterioration.
Citizens have urged the Gram Panchayat, the Public Works Department (PWD), and other concerned authorities to conduct an immediate site inspection and undertake a detailed safety assessment through qualified engineers. They have also demanded prompt repair and strengthening measures to ensure the bridge remains safe for public use. According to residents, the road serves as a vital connectivity route for several villages and is important for daily transportation, agricultural activities, and religious purposes. They cautioned that neglecting the issue could lead to a major accident in the future. Locals have stressed that preventive action should be taken without delay and have called for the immediate removal of accumulated silt, debris, and vegetation beneath the bridge to facilitate the smooth flow of water during the monsoon.
Residents have appealed to the authorities to treat the matter with urgency and initiate corrective measures at the earliest to prevent any loss of life or property.
