Train Crosses Yamuna Bridge Amid Rising Waters

Train Crosses Yamuna Bridge Amid Rising Waters

A passenger train crosses the old Yamuna Bridge over the Yamuna River in Prayagraj, India, on August 3, 2025, as water levels rise following intense monsoon rains. The annual monsoon season brings both critical rainfall and recurring threats of flooding to northern India. As river levels swell, vital infrastructure such as bridges and railway lines come under increased strain. Despite the rising water, train services continue to operate, highlighting the region’s reliance on rail transport for daily commuting and economic activity. The swollen river beneath the historic bridge creates a dramatic visual contrast, underscoring the intersection of resilience, risk, and infrastructure in flood-prone areas. Authorities remain on alert as continued rainfall poses a threat to low-lying neighborhoods and transport systems across the region. Photo by Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
