The fund for the construction was earmarked and allocated beside the finalization and completion of every technical aspect by the department concerned, YTC stated. “However, despite of the verbal and written representations and corresponding assurances and resultant finalization of technical and all other official norms, the bridge is still neglected for nearly two years.”

Therefore, for the welfare of the 2 sub-divisions and in the interest of maintaining the promises alive, YTC has appealed to the State Government for early construction of the bridge before the rainy season takes its toll.
