Sahibganj Bridge: Hope and Connectivity Across the Ganga
A new bridge over the Ganga River in Sahibganj, Jharkhand, promises to transform regional connectivity and ease economic burdens for local residents. Connecting NH-133B in Jharkhand with NH-131A in Bihar, it offers a direct route that will shorten travel times, reduce costs, and enhance access to emergency services. The project, which costs over ₹1,977 crore, is expected to complete by the 2026-2027 fiscal year, aiding mineral trade, improving market links in Bihar, West Bengal, and beyond, and turning long-standing geographic divides into paths of opportunity.
