Kumar said the search operation by SDRF and NDRF teams is underway.

Sultanganj and Khagaria districts are connected by the bridge, which Chief Minister Nitish Kumar officially inaugurated in 2014. CM Kumar has ordered an investigation into the situation and promised to take strict action against the at-fault officials.

Numerous workers were reportedly on the bridge when one of its sections fell to immerse into the river. However, after hearing the news, district administration officials rushed to the collapse site.

Meanwhile, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav has claimed, the collapse of a bridge was intentional due to serious design problems that were found by specialists.

Yadav added that in response, the government has hired researchers from IIT-Roorkee to examine the construction.
