Kulkata’s iconic bridge Howrah was more than 80 years old- surviving Japanese air raids during World War II, earthquake and the weight of millions commuting every day. The new viral video, however, reminded the Internet that the greatest threat of this engineering Marvel is not nature or war … They are Gutkha stains.
The clip shared on Instagram shows damage caused by Paan and Gutkha spitting on the bridge steel structure for years. And the Internet responded to him.
“Ajay DevGn Supremacy,” the user joked, indicating ads to actor Paan Masala.
“Force.” £5, ”he wrote another and dug at the cost of chewing tobacco.
“Even Japanese bombs missed the bridge, but Gutkha no,” one person joked.
Next suggested, “Take the fees for repair from Ajay Devgn.”
“If it is still fun for us, it shows how long it will take us to make any civilian sense,” the user wrote.
“All forms of chewing tobacco should be forbidden in India; it is an inconvenience for Earth, as well as Singapore forbidden chewing gum,” the user asked.
The comment section was flooded with links to the “Bolo Zubaan Kesari”, the brand of the popular Gutkha brand.
For the context of the Kalkata Port Trust engineers, they first increased the alarm in 2013 after discovering the thick layers of the Gutkha deposit, corroding the bridge motherboards. It has been found that the acid mixture of a burner, lime and tobacco eats into steel and forces the authorities to replace the covers with glass fiber.
It is ironic because the Howrah bridge, completed in 1943 without the use of a single nut or screw, has lasted much greater challenges in the past. During World War II, Japanese Kolkata combat aircraft bombed, but their explosives missed the bridge. One such bomb that later recovered from the Hooghla River is now retained at the Kolkata Police Museum.
As one viral comment summed up: “The bridge that even bombs could not destroy £5 Gutkha. This is the story of Indian habits. ”
