On record

Bihar CM Nitish Kumar inaugurated this three-level flyover on June 11, 2025, calling it "not just a bridge, but a vision." By August 2025 visible cracks had appeared following heavy monsoon rainfall, sparking public criticism about construction quality.

The official record states: "No official statement addressing the cracks was issued; damage was informally attributed to heavy monsoon rain."

“Called a vision at its June inauguration; cracked by August. Visions are not load-tested.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk
