Officials here said the bailey bridge, being built over Limchagad between Gangnani and Dharali, is in its final phase and is likely to be ready by Sunday evening.It will help restore connectivity to the affected areas, they said.Blockages along the highway at Songad, Dabrani, Harsil, and Dharali are also being cleared on a war footing, they added.However, rains on Sunday morning has hampered the evacuation of stranded people by helicopters.More than 1,000 people had been evacuated by Saturday.The search for the missing in the flood-ravaged Dharali also continued, with the help of SDRF sniffer dogs and state-of-the-art equipment such as victim locating and thermal imaging cameras.The SDRF is also preparing to deploy its divers with rafts to aid the ongoing search operations, officials said.
