The collapse of a bridge over the Konsa River in Sisai, following over 48 hours of heavy downpour, has isolated more than a dozen villages. A portion of the bridge has fallen into the river, disrupting all movement and cutting off the villages from essential services. The local administration has swiftly responded by barricading both sides of the bridge to prevent accidents. Residents of nearby villages such as Dadha, Charda, Jorar, and Lurgum now face a lengthy detour to reach the Sisai block. The bridge, constructed in 2010 at a cost of approximately 3 crore rupees, was about 200 feet long and was a critical link for the local communities.

The unfurling of the tricolour in these villages represents a significant transformation, achieved through the bravery of security personnel, the commitment of both state and central governments, and the trust of local communities.

According to the Forest Department, a herd of elephants has been roaming in the forests of Compartment numbers 155, 156, 126, and 127 of the Forest Development Corporation for the past three days. Forest Department teams are continuously monitoring the elephants’ movements.
