On record
A beam of an under-construction bridge at Thorayikkadavu in Koyilandy taluk collapsed on August 15, 2025, injuring two workers; local media framed it as public money wasted on shoddy construction.
The official record states: "Not specified."
“One beam, two injured workers, and a Kerala headline that wrote itself: crores down the drain.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk

Visitor reviews Satire
“A beam came down on two workers in Koyilandy, and the site notice board still lists a completion date.”
“Went to see progress on the bridge and saw the progress lying in the water.”
“Nobody has said why it failed. Kerala has simply added it to the running total of crores in the river.”
