Baramulla, June 25: Several people were injured after a portion of flyover shuttering collapsed on the Cheradari Baramulla Bypass on Wednesday, causing panic at the construction site and nearby areas.

According to initial reports, the incident occurred during ongoing construction work when a section of temporary shuttering used for supporting concrete structures gave way. The sudden collapse led to injuries among workers and others present at the site.
Locals and fellow workers immediately rushed to the spot and helped shift the injured to nearby medical facilities for treatment. The condition of the injured is said to be under observation, while some have sustained minor injuries, officials said.
Police and concerned authorities reached the site soon after the incident and cordoned off the area to prevent further risk. An assessment of the structure and construction safety measures is underway to determine the cause of the collapse.
Preliminary information suggests that a technical failure or structural weakness in the temporary support system may have triggered the incident, though an official confirmation is awaited.
Authorities have initiated a probe into the matter, and further details are expected after a detailed inspection of the construction site.
