Two workers killed as cement girder collapses at Srinivasa Setu flyover project in Tirupati

Two workers died on the spot when a cement girder, a part of the Srinivasa Setu elevated corridor project, collapsed and came crashing on them on July 26 (Wednesday) night.

Even as a giant crane was lifting the girder, the cable connected to the crane snapped. The deceased have been identified as Baddo Mandal (43) hailing from from Bihar and Arjit Ghosh (21) from West Bengal. Both were migrant workers engaged for the project by the executing agency AFCONS.
