The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) on Friday reacted to the "cracks" found by Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole as he visited the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Sewri-Nhava Seva Atal Setu in Navi Mumbai. Posting a video statement on X, Kailash Ganatra, Project Head of Atal Setu, clarified that "cracks" are not on the bridge itself but on the approach road connecting MTHL from Ulwe towards Mumbai. "It has been noticed that there is no crack in the main part of Atal Setu Bridge but rumours are being spread. Please don't believe the rumours. Minor cracks have been found on the approach road connecting Atal Setu. The said footpath is not a part of the main bridge but is a service road connecting the bridge. It is also very important to note that the cracks are not due to structural defects in the project and do not pose any threat to the structure of the bridge," Ganatra said.
