The moment of inertia of a uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to it is $\frac{1}{12} ML^2$. The rod is bent at the center such that the two halves make an angle of $60^\circ$ with each other. Find the moment of inertia of the bent rod about the same axis passing through the center of the rod (the point of bending) and perpendicular to the plane containing the two halves.
