Meant to be finished within 2 years of its 2012 start, the flyover remained unfinished more than 6 years later after a mid-project design change (from an L-shape to a T-shape) drove massive cost overruns; two people died in separate structural-collapse incidents during construction.
On record
The official record states: "Reporting alleged corruption and nepotism tied to the contractor's political connections; a minister's claim that only ₹4–5 crore of work remained proved inaccurate."
Filed as "Under repeat repair / abandoned mid-construction" and dated to Started 2012, still incomplete years later, this entry sits under the "Cost escalated from ~₹21 crore (2012 estimate) to ~₹55 crore" line of the public accounts.

“This is not satire. Bomikhal flyover ("bridge to nowhere") is a matter of public record, and at least 2 people did not survive it. We publish it so it is not forgotten between news cycles.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk
