BHOPAL : Eight pucca houses and 22 shops were razed amidst heavy police presence at Pull -Bogda Bridge in the city on Sunday. Some policemen were injured when people pelted stones. Two people have been arrested in connection with stone pelting.

The Railway is laying a third line from Habibganj to Bina and for that the Pull Bogda has to be widened. Around 55 pucca houses have to be removed to pave the way for the construction of a new broader bridge.

A joint team of district administration, Railways, Bhopal Municipal Corporation (BMC) and police removed the encroachments for the construction of the new bridge.

People were served notices and the arrangements were made for their rehabilitation at Godermau. But they were not happy. JCB Machines were pressed into service for the speedy dismantling of concrete structures.

SDM Sunil Raj Nayar, while talking to Free Press, said, “New bridge is being constructed so eight pucca houses and 22 shops were removed. Bhopal -Bina third railway line is being laid and hence a new, broader bridge is needed. Some unidentified people pelted police with stones. In this connection we have arrested two people. Police men were injured.”
