The roots of corruption have spread not only in their own country but in all the countries of the world. You have often heard that the roads and pools constructed by the government get deteriorated only after few years of inauguration. Sometimes the situation becomes even worse. Bridges etc break on the day of inauguration itself. A similar case occurred in a Mexican city where the city’s mayor and other officials were called to inaugurate a bridge. As soon as they climbed this bridge, it broke down and about 2 dozen people, including the mayor, fell down into the drain.

According to the information, a footbridge was built over a river in the city of Cuernivaca, Mexico. The bridge was made of wooden boards and metal chains and was remodeled. After the bridge collapsed, city council members and other local officials fell 3 meters into the drain. There were stones under the drain and people fell on these stones. The mayor, his wife, several officials and reporters were among those who fell into the drain. During this, many people suffered injuries, which were later taken to the hospital.

The video of this entire incident is now going viral on social media in which many people are seen falling in the drain. It can be seen in the video that after the fall of the people, the work of evacuating them is going on. It has been told in media reports that this incident happened due to people climbing the bridge more than the capacity.
