Controversy Surrounds Bhara Kahu Bypass Construction as Officials Plan Goat Sacrifice

ISLAMABAD: In a bizarre turn of events, the construction of Bhara Kahu bypass has once again become the talk of the town. This roller coaster project has now reached new heights of absurdity as reports suggest that a goat is to be sacrificed before the installation of a beam.

A photo was shared in an official tweet by the Islamabadies handle which took the internet by storm.

It seems that the construction authorities have taken a leaf out of the ancient Greek playbook and have decided to appease the construction gods with this ritual sacrifice.

The Bhara Kahu bypass has already faced its fair share of troubles in the past, with falling pillars and other mishaps causing serious concerns among the residents. But it seems that the authorities have found a new solution to their construction woes – a little bit of blood sacrifice.

Unsurprisingly, this latest development has sparked outrage among social media users, with many questioning the competence of the construction authorities. Some have even gone so far as to suggest that this is a clear case of the authorities compromising on quality and then trying to cover up their mistakes with a sacrifice.

As for the poor goat, it remains to be seen whether its sacrifice will bring any benefits to the Bhara Kahu bypass project. But one thing is for sure – this controversial project just keeps getting weirder and weirder.
