I went to look this up because it sounds so unbelievable, but apparently bridge collapses are so frequent in India that I found a completely different incident.

The government pays families of the victims a mere $2,200 when they die in horrible and preventable bridge collapses.

A bridge in India fell into the River Ganges for the second time in a year while it was still under-construction.

Then a few months later a third time.

This is literally the Mississippi of India. We would assume their best were working this project?

Note* - No Foreign labor appears to have been involved in this incident.

** Construction Quality was cited as the cause.

Update, November 2026: three collapses. Still not open. It was supposed to be done by December 2026. Now they're saying late 2027. Another year slipped, and the original target was 2019.
