Amid talks of development, Mahatma Gandhi Setu, the crucial link between north and south Bihar that connects Hajipur in North to Patna across Ganga, witnesses frequent jams. There are only 4 bridges on Ganga while there are plans to make more, including one next to Gandhi Setu. Work on the new bridge is yet to start. One flank of bridge has been upgraded, the other side is still in shambles and commuters say they don't just face jams, but also feel scared that the bridge may fall when it's choked with traffic.
