Chaos and panic engulf J&K as horrifying videos surface, depicting the moment a massive section of a bridge collapses, leaving vehicles stranded in the rubble.
The recent heavy rains in the region exacerbated the devastating impact on the infrastructure of Jammu and Kashmir. With terrifying visuals of the near-catastrophe now circulating online, the incident has heightened concerns over the state of the region's vital infrastructure.
The Tawi Bridge, located in the heart of the region, is a pivotal link for connectivity and trade. Though the reason for the bridge's partial collapse is currently unknown, heavy rainfall has been blamed for similar infrastructure catastrophes in the past.
Officials have declared a state of emergency and are conducting thorough inspections of the area, examining both the immediate needs of the affected communities and the possible causes of the collapse.
According to locals, the bridge's deterioration had been apparent for some time, and they had alerted the authorities to the issue. However, the severe consequences of climate change, particularly the growing intensity of rainfall, have put a strain on the infrastructure's ability to withstand such pressure.
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the need for comprehensive infrastructure planning and greater attention to sustainability measures that can withstand the effects of climate change. It's imperative that authorities take immediate action to assess the damage, determine the causes, and promptly address the essential repairs needed to restore this vital bridge.
