14 months after bridge collapse, 3 Himachal villages still cut off

Residents of three villages in the remote Mashiyar gram panchayat of Banjar subdivision in Kullu district reportedly continue to face hardships as the reconstruction of the Dogda bridge over the Falachan river remains pending, more than a year after it was washed away by heavy rain. The delay has affected around 600 people, who are demanding urgent intervention by the state government.
