MP Chirag Paswan praised the decision to name the new Raghopur‑Bidupur bridge ‘Nitish Setu’, calling it a fitting tribute.
The Bihar government has officially named the forthcoming Raghopur‑Bidupur bridge over the Ganga as “Nitish Setu”, a tribute to the state’s chief minister Nitish Kumar. The move was announced as part of the state’s ongoing infrastructure expansion aimed at improving connectivity across the region.
Member of Parliament Chirag Paswan welcomed the decision, stating that no better homage could be offered to the leader. He expressed gratitude to the government for honoring Kumar’s contributions to Bihar’s development.
The bridge will link the villages of Raghopur in Saran district with Bidupur in Vaishali district, providing a direct route that is expected to ease traffic congestion on existing crossings and stimulate local commerce.
Construction of the structure is currently underway, with officials indicating that it will be opened to the public in the near future, further bolstering the state’s transport network.
