    The Howrah Bridge is one of the busiest cantilever bridges in the world. The Howrah Bridge is a cantilever bridge that spans the Hooghly River in West Bengal, India.

    Commissioned in 1943, [4][10] the bridge was originally named the New Howrah Bridge, because it links the city of Howrah to its twin city, Kolkata (Calcutta). On 14 June 1965 it was renamed Rabindra Setu, after Rabindranath Tagore a great

    Bengal poet and the first Indian Nobel laureate. [10]

    However it is still popularly known as the Howrah Bridge.
