UP Official Threatens To Jump Off Bridge
A big boss in Uttar Pradesh, India, got very angry because a bridge that's been under construction for three years is still not finished.
He told the people building it that they have to finish by January 15, or he will jump off the bridge.
He also said the same thing about another bridge in Jhansi that needs to be done by December 30.
The bridges are important because they help cars move faster and avoid traffic jams.
A senior official in Uttar Pradesh threatened to jump off a bridge if the contractor does not complete the construction by January 15.
The overbridge at Kailguwan intersection on National Highway 44 has been under construction for three years.
The official, Vimal Kumar Dubey, gave the contractor a deadline of January 15 and warned of jumping off the bridge if the work is incomplete.
Dubey also issued a similar ultimatum for another overbridge in Jhansi, with a deadline of December 30.
The bridges are crucial for reducing traffic jams and detours on the highways.
