Patna: A rare over a century-old steam road roller built by a British company that was once used by the Patna District Board for constructing roads is languishing in a corner of the collectorate campus, many of whose historic buildings have been demolished in the last two weeks.
The main building of the district board built in 1938, a Dutch-era record room building barring its small frontage, and a centuries-old historic building near it, have been razed while more structures await dismantling for a redevelopment project which has triggered grief among heritage lovers in India and abroad.
