Claim: A viral video showing a shaking bridge with a collapsed joint is from Bihar.
Fact-check: Video of a bridge cracking in West Bengal is shared as being from Bihar - FACTLY
Verdict: the viral video is from the nabadwip gaurang setu in west bengal and was recorded on 3 october 2024, when large cracks appeared, prompting inspections and traffic restrictions. this bridge, connecting nadia and burdwan, faced similar issues in 2021. though bihar witnessed several bridge collapses in mid-2024 due to heavy rains, raising concerns about infrastructure safety, this video has nothing to do with bihar. hence, the claim is misleading.
