Dashrath Manjhi!!

When you are really tired after a day's work and feel like you've done too much, just read once about Dashrath Manjhi(Mountain Man).
Too much dedication and hard work packed in a single man!
And we all know the reason behind his initiative!! smile emoticon True love!!
Respect!!
Now who is Dashrath manjhi?
Dashrath Manjhi also known as "Mountain Man", was a poor labourer in Gehlaur village, near Gaya in Bihar, India, who carved a path through a 360 ft long, 30 ft wide and 25 ft high hillock using only a hammer and chisel.After 22 years of work, Dashrath shortened travel between the Atri and Wazirganj blocks of Gaya town from 55 km to 15 km

Dashrath's wife Falguni Devi died from lack of medical care in 1959. The nearest town with a doctor was 70 km away traveling around the hills, or along a treacherous pass through the hills. He decided to carve a path through the Gehlour hills so that his village could have easier access to medical attention.



A true inspiration!
