PONDA: The remains of the old non-functional Borim bridge poses danger to barges and fishermen who use this route frequently.
A few days ago, two labourers lost their lives while working on the old bridge and last year, a part of the dilapidated bridge carrying a water pipeline had fallen into the river.

Locals say that a portion of the old bridge which had collapsed into the river had become an underwater obstruction and poses a risk to vessels here.
The frequent movement of barge traffic has damaged the existing weak structure and poses imminent danger to locals, fishermen, workers involved in sand extraction and youth who frequent the place to drink and take selfies.
