New Delhi:They waited, waited, waited and then decided not to wait anymore. A group of villagers in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur district, tired of waiting for local representatives to fulfill their promises to get a bridge built, have taken matters into their own hands.
An 108-ft bridge, paid for by the villagers, is now coming up on the Magai river. The villagers have been pooling money to arrange the required funds of nearly Rs 1 crore. They said they have repeatedly raised their demand for the bridge, but have only received promises. The foundation stone for the bridge was laid in February last year and work is now in full swing. Administrative questions, however, remain. The bridge is being constructed without the administration's permission and in that case, a big question is how accountability would be fixed if there is an accident later.
