PM Modi Inaugurates ‘Sudarshan Setu’, India’s Longest Cable-Stayed Bridge

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today inaugurated India’s longest cable-stayed bridge in Gujarat’s Dwarka.
The ‘Sudarshan Setu’, connecting Okha and Beyt Dwarka island, has been constructed at the cost of Rs 979 crore. PM Modi had laid the foundation stone of the 2.3 km-long bridge in October 2017, saying that it will serve as a link between old and new Dwarka.

“The four-lane 27.20 metre wide bridge has 2.50 metre wide footpaths on each side,” an official release said. Sudarshan Setu boasts a unique design, featuring a footpath adorned with verses from the Bhagavad Gita and images of Lord Krishna on both sides.

The bridge, which was known as ‘Signature Bridge’, has been renamed as ‘Sudarshan Setu’ or Sudarshan Bridge. Beyt Dwarka is an island near Okha port, which is nearly 30 km from Dwarka town, where the famous Dwarkadhish temple of Lord Krishna is situated.

“Delighted to inaugurate Sudarshan Setu today – a bridge that connects lands and people. It stands vibrantly as a testament of our commitment to development and progress,” the Prime Minister said in a post on X – formerly known as Twitter.

PM Modi offered prayers at Dwarkadhish temple before inaugurating the bridge.

The Prime Minister this afternoon will also inaugurate Gujarat’s first All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Rajkot.
