Patna's Double-Decker Dilemma: Rain Wreaks Havoc on Infrastructure

Heavy rainfall in Patna has led to severe waterlogging, affecting major localities and infrastructure, including the Bihar Vidhan Sabha premises.

The newly inaugurated double-decker flyover, despite sustaining a dent, remains deemed safe for use by the authorities. State officials are conducting assessments to evaluate the full extent of the damage.

The incessant downpour has also resulted in rising river levels, prompting the state government to issue alerts and instruct district administrators to maintain high vigilance against potential flooding risks.
