A Bridge That was
Constructed by the British
around 1927 AD, the Ravi bridge fell a victim to the spate of hatred of
1971 war when the Indian army bombarded it to thwart the advance of
Pakistani army. Pakistan sold the steel girders as scrap to exhibit its
poverty. It was a two tier bridge lower tier for Rail and upper for road.
