70 Years, No Bridge: Boosi Villagers Build Their Own Lifeline After Government Fails

• Boosi village in Pali district lacks a bridge over the Sumer River, trapping 200 families every monsoon.
• Despite 70 years of independence and repeated pleas, government assistance never materialized.
• Villagers have now united to construct a small bridge through community cooperation.
• The absence of a bridge forces families to stay confined for 3-4 months, risking lives for daily needs.
• Even after being adopted by an MP, the village's basic infrastructure need remained unaddressed.
