Two Weeks On, Naninara Iron Bridge Still Unrepaired, Forcing Commuters Into Daily Hardship Anchor:-Two weeks after the Naninara iron bridge was damaged, the route remains closed with no sign of repair work. The delay from the Bandipora district administration has left thousands of commuters struggling every day, as they are forced to take long and inconvenient detours to reach schools, workplaces and hospitals. Residents say the situation is getting worse. The damaged bridge has cut off a crucial connection for several villages, increasing travel time and creating new risks for patients and students who rely on quick access to essential services. Local traders have also reported losses due to the drop in customer movement. Despite repeated appeals, the administration has yet to take concrete action. Villagers say officials have visited the site but no repair machinery, workers or materials have been deployed so far. With frustration building, locals now say their last hope lies with the Indian Army. They believe the Army’s engineering units have the capability and urgency needed to restore the bridge quickly and safely. Many residents are urging the authorities to seek their assistance before the situation worsens. People in the area are calling for immediate intervention, saying the delay is unacceptable and avoidable. They hope the concerned departments will act without further wait so life can return to normal for the thousands who depend on this vital route every day.
