New Delhi, Oct. 1: The Indian Army has built in record time a footbridge near the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium and handed it over to the Commonwealth Games organisers, an official said on Friday.
The (95-metre) bridge has been handed over to the organisers, an official in the army headquarters said. The organisers were informed Thursday evening that the overbridge was ready. The army stepped in to build the retractable overpass after an under-construction footbridge collapsed on September 21 near the stadium, the main venue of the Oct 3-14 sporting event.
