Under-Construction Bridge Collapses Again in India, Prompts Safety Probe

An Indian state government has ordered an investigation into the collapse of an unfinished bridge over the Ganges River.
This is the second time in a year the structure has crashed, though no injuries were reported as no one was on the bridge.
India's infrastructure has frequently been criticized over safety issues that have at times led to major accidents on roads and bridges.
Construction on the 3.6-kilometer bridge started in 2014, built by a private company at a cost of 17 billion rupees ($208 million).
The repeat collapse has renewed concerns about shoddy construction standards in the country's massive infrastructure projects.
