INDIA LONGEST BRIDGE OVER LOHIT AND BRAHMAPUTRA RIVER WITH A SPANS OF 9.15 KM (5.69 MILEAGE) INAUGURATED

The Prime Minister of India, Mr Narendra Modi was inaugurated the India's longest bridge on 26th May'2017 connecting between two state of India viz., Arunachal Pradesh and Assam and created a history in North East India. The length of bridge is 9.15 Kilometers (5.69 Mileages) and has been built over the Lohit River in Arunachal Pradesh which is a major tributary of Brahmaputra River in Assam, from Dhola Ghat in South to Sadiya in North to connect the states of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh.

Earlier, people of both the States used to cross the mighty Brahmaputra river by diesel engined driven Ferries/Boats. This journey from Dhola Ghat to Sadiya Ghat and vice-versa caused a lots of hardship to the people from Sadiya region of Assam and Dibang Valley and Lower Dibang Valley regions of Arunachal Pradesh. With the coming up of India's longest bridge connecting Dhola to Sadiya, the people of both the states would get a lots of  relief and untold happiness from boat /ferry ride in this stretch of Brahmaputra  and on the other hand, the journey from Sadiya Ghat to Dhola Ghat and vice-versa  by Ferries will remain nostalgic memories from now onwards.
