Bihar CM Inaugurates Elevated Road, Cutting Travel Times
Imagine a new, faster road in Bihar!
The Chief Minister opened a special road that goes up high in some places.
This new road will help people travel much quicker, cutting travel time from an hour to just ten minutes.
The company Afcons built this road, which includes a part that goes up in the air.
It was a bit tricky to build, as they had to deal with traffic and build in busy areas.
Now, it's easier for everyone to get around!

The road connects Bhupatipur/Sipara, Mahuli, and Punpun.
The project was executed by Afcons Infrastructure Ltd.
