The Indian Army has built the longest suspension bridge over the Indus river in the Leh-Ladakh region in just 40 days, Financial Express has reported.
The construction of the bridge was also made possible due to the valuable help of locals from nearby villages. In order to complete the bridge, Indian Army had to ferry 500 tonnes of construction materials and bridge equipment.
Even during the Commonwealth Games when India was struggling to complete the construction of facilities on time, Indian Army had helped rebuild a collapsed suspension bridge outside the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in record time.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
