Nitish Setu Bridge in Bihar to Be Inaugurated by PM Modi on November 21
The newly constructed six-lane Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur bridge over the Ganga in Bihar, costing around ₹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- to 19.7-km bridge on November 21, coinciding with the NDA government's one-year anniversary in Bihar. The bridge aims to improve connectivity between Patna and north Bihar districts, reducing travel time and supporting regional development. The naming honors Kumar's leadership, with support from both JD(U) and state officials.
