On record

Approach girders of an under-construction railway overbridge near Adas village gave way on May 30, 2026, sustaining substantial structural damage; no injuries since no one was beneath it, but railway authorities launched an inquiry.

The official record states: "Vadodara Railway Division's PRO attributed it to failure of "approach girders during construction activities," calling it a "minor incident"; social media alleged substandard materials and poor supervision."

“The approach girders gave way with nobody underneath, which is the railways' definition of a good day.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk

Visitor reviews Satire

“Approach girders on a railway overbridge failed mid-construction, and the division's PRO has classified this as a minor incident.”
BJ B. Joshi · Anand★★★★★
“Nobody was underneath it near Adas village, which is the sole reason this is a story about concrete and not people.”
HP H. Pillai · Anand★★★★★
“Level crossing 250 is still a level crossing, and will be for a while longer now.”
