the mountain man

in #blog7 years ago

Dashrath Manjhi lives in a remote and isolated village in India.
His wife suffered a very serious injury. Because of the distance between the hospital and the village and the long, crooked road (70 km), the ambulance did not arrive at the right time and the companion of the path died in the hands of her husband, who is helpless and has nothing.
He asked the government to make a tunnel in the mountain to shorten the road to the village so that this incident would not be repeated to other people but ignored it. The farmer decided to act on his own to end the tragedy that he and the people of his village were experiencing. He got a horse and a donkey and decided to dig a rocky road between his hands. the mountain.
He ridiculed all the villagers and accused him of insanity, saying that he lost his mind after the death of his wife.
The 22-year-old farmer (from 1960 to 1982) has been digging up the mountain daily, from morning to evening, without tirelessness and boredom. He has only his ax and his will and his will to face the mountains and the image of his wife in his mind as she dies in his hands.
In the latter, he managed to make a 110-meter mountain road, 9 meters wide and 7 meters high. The distance between his village and the city was only 7 kilometers (70 kilometers); children could go to school and the ambulance could arrive in time
This man did with his bare hands and his will, which conquered the mountains for 22 years, what the government could have done in three months.
