Due to
excessive rainfall, water remains in the river channels of Bastar throughout
the year. Due to the geographical condition being very difficult and always,
even today there are no bridges on the rivers coming in the way, due to which
the villagers have to face difficulties. Today, in the modern era, as far as
Bastar has reached, there have been small and big bridges over the rivers.
The same we
look at the history of the traffic routes of Bastar two hundred and three
hundred years back from today, then it seems that there must have been only one
means of crossing the river and nallahs, that is only small boats ... and even
today only this Only option is visible.
We cannot
even imagine that the villagers here would have built wooden bridges over the
rivers, but this bridge built on a river in Abujhmad is a living example of the
traditional engineering skills of Abujhmad. The pillar of this wooden bridge is
very strong, as if there is a turret of the fort, it can be easily removed on
foot or by cycle.
On the same
Indravati, this small wooden bridge is also very strong, on which even two
wheelers can easily pass. The villagers here are more skilled than the English
engineers who built strong bridges on the rivers here. The proof of which is
this wooden bridge.
About 120
years ago, Plumbali also built wooden bridges in Bastar during the reign of
King Rudrapratap Dev in Bastar. They had built such strong wooden bridges on
which big trucks could easily pass. At that time, about 1500 wooden bridges
were built in the whole of Bastar.
