Border Infrastructure: BRO does it again! Six new bridges in J&K unveiled by the defence minister
Amidst the ongoing border tensions between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), six critical bridges were unveiled by the defence minister Rajnath Singh today in Jammu and Kashmir. Out of the six bridges built by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) four are in Akhnoor sector and two in Jammu-Rajpura area. Constructed at a cost of Rs 45 crore, they are around 300 to 100 metres. All the strategic roads and critical military infrastructures like the construction of major roads, bridges and tunnels are undertaken by the BRO.
Ahead of the inauguration the defence minister had a review meeting with the officials of BRO earlier in the week to talk about improving the infrastructure near the LAC with China and the Line of Control with Pakistan (LOC).
