Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was touring his home state of Gujarat at the time, announced compensation for those killed and injured in the accident.
Modi "sought urgent mobilization of teams for rescue [operations]", his office tweeted.
"He has asked that the situation be closely and continuously monitored, and [for authorities to] extend all possible help to those affected."
The Gujarat government on its official website describes the bridge as "an engineering marvel built at the turn of the century".
