The Congress Kerala on X shared a Google Maps image of a bridge in Andhra Pradesh Monday, showing its peculiar design featuring three sharp turns squeezed into a single stretch. This post followed the viral discussion about a controversial railway overbridge with a 90-degree curve in Madhya Pradesh’s capital Bhopal.

In a playful jab at the Telugu Desam Party (TDP)-BJP ruling alliance, the Congress Kerala post read: “Bhopal made a 90° flyover. Andhra: ‘Hold my chai.’”

According to the comments section, the bridge is located on State Highway 57 (SH 57) near a place called Vasudevapuram.

The post quickly gained traction, racking up over seven lakh views and sparking plenty of amused reactions.

One user wrote, “Temple Run — Andhra version.” Another joked, “I think these were designed by Covid-time engineers.” A third chimed in, “I’ve seen worse ones — imagine this underground with waterlogging during rains.”

Meanwhile, a curious user asked, “Why can’t it be connected to the other side in a curved manner? Any technical reason?”

Bhopal railway overbridge

The Congress’s post has come even as the internet was still busy roasting Bhopal’s railway overbridge for its bizarre 90-degree curve.

A newly built railway overbridge near Aishbagh Stadium in Bhopal stirred controversy just as it neared completion — not over delays or budget issues, but over what many believed was a major design flaw. The sharp, almost 90-degree turn right after the ascent raised serious safety concerns. While Congress criticised the design online, Madhya Pradesh PWD Minister Rakesh Singh dismissed their claims as politically driven but assured a review. The Rs 18-crore bridge was meant to ease traffic for nearly three lakh daily commuters in the area.
