Earlier, the High Court had ordered not to demolish the bridge till 10 October. It was on the basis of many pleas that was submitted requesting not to demolish the bridge. The court asked the government to submit a report about it.

Two pleas that came before  the court requested that  load testing is done  to check the strength of the flyover before taking a decision to demolish it. The court had stopped the demolition of the bridge in favour of these pleas.

Those who submitted the pleas said that the reports including that from the IIT has not recommended that the bridge be demolished.
