Sanjay Setu pillar sinks partially, traffic movement obstructed

A pillar on Sanjay Setu sunk partially disrupting the traffic movement going from Bahraich towards Lucknow on Tuesday.

The traffic movement came to a standstill after the pillar number five of Sanjay Setu sunk by 6 inches.

The bridge situated on the Bahraich-Lucknow road, built over River Ghagra, connects Gonda, Balrampur to the state capital.

A team of highly experienced engineers is present at the spot conducting an investigation.
