IN PICS: Take A Look At Some Of The Infrastructural Wonders Of India

A bridge that connects the western suburbs of Mumbai to South Mumbai, Bandra-Worli Sea Link or the Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link is an engineering marvel in India worth visiting. A cable-stayed bridge built with pre-stressed concrete-steel viaducts, Bandra-Worli Sea Link is the first eight-lane structure project, consisting of seismic arrestors and can withstand earthquakes up to 7.0 on the Richter scale. This was also constructed by the Hindustan Construction Company. (Image: Getty Images)

Pir Panjal Railway Tunnel, also known as Banihal Railway Tunnel, is an 11.2km-long tunnel built at an altitude of 1440ft on the Pir Panjal ranges of the Himalayas. It is the longest tunnel in India and the second-longest in Asia. The tunnel connects Bichleri Valley of Banihal to Qazigund and is also a vital link connecting Udhampur to Baramulla. It was built by the Hindustan Construction Company. (Image: Getty Images)

A statue built in the honour of the Iron Man of India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the Statue of Unity stands as the tallest structure in the world. The massive project was undertaken and successfully completed by Larson & Toubro in 2018, and was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The bridge is an example of the cantilever segmental construction method and has two lanes, one upstream and another downstream. (Image: Getty Images)

The Pamban Railway bridge, that was built in 1914, is more than 100 years old and connects Mandapam town with Pamban Island and Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu. This engineering marvel is India’s first sea rail bridge project that flaunts a double-leaf bascule section in the midway, which can be raised to let ships pass below. The incredible structure, built with amazing precision and design, still enthrals travellers passing through it via trains or ships. (Image: Getty Images)

Another engineering marvel in India is the Auroville Dome present in Auroville, Tamil Nadu. It is also called the Matrimandir or Temple of the Mother, and is an edifice of spiritual significance to integral yoga practitioners. This structure was completed in the year 1971.
