New Delhi:
More than 130 people have died in Gujarat after a British-era bridge collapsed just a week after renovation. The suspension bridge -- 200 km from Ahmedabad -- collapsed at 6.42 pm on Sunday when around 500 people had congregated on it. The cable bridge snapped due to a heavy rush of people, sources in India's top forensic laboratory have said.
Oreva group, a Gujarat-based watchmaker, carried out the repairs on the century-old bridge. It reopened the bridge on October 26, the Gujarati New Year.
Eyewitnesses say there were several women and children on the nearly 150-year-old bridge when cables supporting it snapped, sending scores of people tumbling into the river below.
Here are the highlights on Gujarat cable bridge collapse:
