Finance Minister of Gujarat, Kanubhai Desai, has announced a budget of ₹3.01 lakh crore for the 2023-24 fiscal year, which includes an allocation of ₹550 crore for the reconstruction and strengthening of old bridges. The decision to focus on the renovation of old bridges is significant due to the backlash faced by the BJP-led government over the collapse of the Morbi suspension bridge last year, leading to the death of 135 individuals. The bridge had been renovated by Oreva, a private company that failed to obtain a fitness certificate from the local municipality before opening it to the public.from IndiaTV Business: Google News Feed https://ift.tt/FnecOBK
