Gurupriya Setu-Malkangiri Trends With 11000 Tweets

Bhubaneswar: Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik got national recognition on dedicating Gurupriya Setu to Odisha.

With over 11,000 tweets nationwide, both Gururpriya Setu and Malkangiri are trending on Twitter and dominating the digital space.

The 910-metre-long bridge and 1200-metre approach road on either side have been built by the Kolkata-based Royal Infraconstru Limited at an estimated cost of Rs 472 crore. The work began in 2014 with the deployment of Border Security Forces at both ends of the bridge.

The bridge will connect 151 villages with a population of about 30,000 spread over seven panchayats in the cut-off area to the mainland.

The security personnel will have a tactical advantage after completion of the bridge.

CM’s Twitter handle was filled with posts on the Gurupriya bridge. Each one of them describes the setu. The recent one being a video with #pragatiragurupriyasetu.


India has taken note of the incredible achievement that is Gurupriya and appreciated efforts of the Odisha government that literally moved mountains to construct the bridge after overcoming odds and obstacles.
