After the Sultanganj-Aguwani ghat bridge over river Ganga collapsed on June 4 in Bihar’s Khagaria district, the ruling Janata Dal(U) MLA from Parbatta Assembly constituency Sanjeev Kumar held the head of the State Road Construction Department responsible for the incident.
However, Rashtriya Janata Dal MLA from Ramgarh Sudhakar Singh on June 8 disagreed and asked why Chief Minister Nitish Kumar who is the head of the State, should not held responsible for the accident.
Members of both the ruling alliance parties have questioned the Nitish Kumar-led government over the bridge collapse incident.
