The Omkareshwar-Malleswar suspension bridge, a vital link for devotees, has resumed operations on Friday. The bridge had been temporarily closed for two days to facilitate necessary repairs.
During the closure, authorities replaced a damaged suspension hook. The repair work has now been completed, allowing pilgrims to cross the Narmada River once again.
Experts have emphasized the importance of crowd management and regular technical inspections to ensure the continued safety of the bridge, especially given the potential dangers of overcrowding at a single point.
