As per news report of NDTV, The Prime Minister is expected to visit the incident site in Morbi and the civil hospital where the injured have been admitted. He chaired a high-level meeting last night during which he was briefed about the rescue efforts. The British-era suspension bridge in Morbi, which had been closed since March for renovation, collapsed on Sunday night - just four days after it reopened to the public. At least 47 children, several women and elderly are among the dead, according to the officials. Nearly 500 people were on the bridge when it collapsed. Though, the 150-year-old structure could take the weight of only about 125 people.
