The Committee has also threatened to intensify its protest by observing a bundh if the demand to reconstruct the bridge was not fulfilled.

Committee Vice President Jayanth Badagabellur said the number of children  attending classes at the Muttur school has reduced after the bridge collapse. Many have  enrolled their children to other schools, he said.

Committee President Hariyappa Muttur and several locals were present. The protestors said the protest will continue until the DC arrives and receives their memorandum.
