By A Staff Reporter

Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday inaugurated the newly constructed ‘Bridge Sindoor’ in south Mumbai, marking the replacement of the now-demolished Carnac Bridge, which had long been deemed structurally unsafe. The bridge, completed in record time by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), will be open for public use starting 3 PM today.

In his address, Fadnavis said, “Sindoor Bridge is being inaugurated in Mumbai today in place of the damaged Carnac bridge, which was demolished... Carnac was a tyrannical Governor. We know Operation Sindoor resides in the hearts of Indians. That is why we have decided to change the bridge's name to Bridge Sindoor.”

He praised the BMC and infrastructure teams for their swift and efficient work. “I want to thank the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. They have completed this bridge in record time... I dedicate this bridge to the people of Mumbai,” he added.
