A newly built bridge at Chandwara was found with broken railings and visible structural damage even before it could be formally opened to traffic, raising questions about construction quality.
On record
The official record states: "District administration ordered a high-level committee to examine construction quality and potential corruption; no formal contractor explanation issued."
Filed as "Never opened (damaged before formal inauguration)" and dated to Not specified (recent, pre-inauguration), this entry sits under the "Not specified" line of the public accounts.
What to expect
- A structure best photographed from a respectful distance.
- Warning boards whose advice was, at some point, overtaken by events.
- A view of the water that residents did not ask to have this closely.
- Contractor signage, still standing, credit unclear.

Visitor reviews
“Arrived at closing time and found there was no closing time to speak of. It is on track, provided you do not look for the track.”
“Went on a weekday morning and had the entire place to myself. The ambition is retained for the brochure and nowhere else.”
“Drove past the inauguration hoarding to reach the actual site. It has an excellent online presence and a weak physical one.”
