The bridge collapsed on Tuesday evening.
Now, villagers of Raghopur are cut off from the rest of the district. Raghopur is assembly constituency of Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav.
Local residents claimed that the portion of the bridge was swept away amid heavy rainfall coupled with storm.
“After the bridge was washed away, now we can only cross the river through boat. People of 22 Panchayats are affected by it. Travelling in boats is risky as its owners sometimes overload it,” Abhishek Kumar, a resident of Raghopur, said.
