For the first time since its introduction in 1853, Indian Railways T have achieved the feat of zero passenger fatality due to train accidents during the year. The tremendous achievement has been made possible through a slew of measures taken by Railways like record amount of track renewals, elimination of Level Crossings and construction of ROBs/RUBs, interlocking of signals, etc. The eventful year has also seen huge infrastructural boost including completion of New Line (360 Km), Doubling (1458 Km), Gauge Conversion ( 408 Km) and Electrification (5782 RKms) projects which are in addition to completion of a total of 500 RKm of Dedicated Freight Corridor on which more than 1300 freight trains have already run till 31st March 2020. Every year, usually in the month of April, we publish the Special Annual issue of the magazine. However, this year, due to the abnormal situation prevailing in the country since March 2020, we have been forced to postpone the issue. Now, with normalcy gradually being restored, it is our great pleasure that we are now able to bring out the much-awaited Special Annual issue of the magazine.

The bridges by themselves, the former being of balanced- cantilever form and the latter being cable-stayed, are marvels of bridge engineering with each being built in very different eras with tremendous variation in the technology that had been employed, all to serve the one purpose of improving communication and traffic conditions by releasing some of the volume exerted on each due to daily movement. The main issue of this research is to make a comparative review of the two bridges, mainly from strict technical points of views and also from the social and economic factors that arise out of them. The structural configurations, foundation characteristics, construction techniques and maintenance issues have been extensively discussed. Relevant statistical facts relating to traffic volume on the bridges and illustrations have been provided as and when required to verify some of the facts that has been discussed.
