Saralnama3 km is the extra distance villagers in Ubadhi, Daraunda, Siwan district must travel due to lack of a bridge over the Daha River. For years, locals have demanded a bridge, but construction hasn't started. In summer and winter, when water levels are low, villagers create a temporary bamboo bridge called 'chachari'. During other times, they use boats. Two-wheelers and four-wheelers can't cross the makeshift bridge, forcing people to take a longer route via Bakhri village. This affects nearby villages like Madhavpur too. Though officials promised a bridge, even approval is pending, frustrating villagers. (Updated 23 Oct 2025, 04:40 IST; source: link)
