A tanker that had been stuck in the broken part of a bridge in Vadodara, Gujarat, for the past 28 days was finally successfully removed on Saturday. The incident occurred on August 21 when a tanker climbed onto the weak part of the bridge, causing a large section of the bridge to collapse into the river. The bridge was completely damaged in the accident, and traffic was severely affected. The local administration and disaster management teams worked together to carry out this challenging rescue operation. Officials stated that the 'Marine Balloon Technique' was used to remove the tanker. This technique involves using balloons underwater to lift the tanker up. The process was long and complex, with a team of technical experts working day and night. Special precautions were taken to avoid the damaged part of the bridge while removing the tanker. The entire incident involved teams from the Gujarat government, police, fire department, public works department, and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF). Authorities said that after the removal of the tanker, work on the reconstruction of the bridge will begin, which may take several months. There are no reports of anyone being injured in the accident, but the damage to the bridge had a significant impact on the city's traffic. Local residents have appreciated the challenging rescue work. A local resident said, "It's a big achievement that the tanker has been removed after so many days. This has not only increased our safety but also paved the way for the reconstruction of the bridge."
