Bihar's Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur Bridge Named 'Nitish Setu'; PM Modi to Inaugurate
The newly constructed six-lane Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur bridge over the Ganga in Bihar, costing around Rs 5,000 crore, will be named 'Nitish Setu' after former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to inaugurate the 9.7-km bridge on November 21 during his visit to Bihar, coinciding with the NDA government's one-year anniversary. The bridge aims to enhance connectivity between North and South Bihar, reduce travel time, and support regional development, with state leaders highlighting its significance for infrastructure growth.
