Built in 1986, the bridge connected Mujpur and Gambhira villages and had shown visible signs of wear for years.

People are now curious to know more about who Jamaluddin, aka, Changur Baba really is and how he managed to carry out such activities.

Following the Gambhira Bridge collapse in Vadodara, which claimed 13 lives, revelations emerged that authorities ignored repeated warnings about the bridge’s unsafe condition. Local leaders, including Harshadsinh Parmar, had alerted the Roads and Buildings Department as early as 2022, demanding immediate closure and reconstruction. Despite reminders and concerns raised after the Morbi tragedy, officials maintained the bridge was under consideration.
