Fortunately no casualties occurred despite six concrete beems of 50 feet height, collapsed and broke into pieces.
The much awaited project was completely neglected by the successive governments for over a decade due to politics. It was sanctioned eight months ago.
The Rs 42 crore project was taken up by a joint venture between state, center and South Eastern railway. The contractor or the Engineer were not present when the incident occurred.
Blaming the contractor, the locals alleged that poor quality of work led to the incident. No contractor or engineer was present even during construction, they added. Siddaiah, who runs an eatery near KSRTC bus stand said that it could have been a major tragedy if people were underneath the flyover when it crashed.
