After the noise from various politicians and  the people of Goa the drama has stopped on the new Zuari Bridge for visitors due to the preparation for inauguration.  Don't understand why delay for its opening? Hope this bridge stays strong without pothole issues and is not closed for repairs by calling IIT Madras for panchanama like Atal Setu.
