Dashrath Manjhi Dwar - Tourist attraction in Gehlor - Gaya, India

Dashrath Manjhi Dwar made in the memories of mountain man of Bihar who made the road by cutting the mountain by a chisel and hammer. Dashrath Manjhi born in 14 January 1934 also known as Mountain Man,[was an Indian laborer from Gehlaur village, near Gaya in the eastern state of Bihar. When his wife died in 1959 due to injury caused by falling from a mountain and due to the same mountain blocking easy access to a nearby hospital in time, he decided to carve a 110 meter-long (360 ft), 9.1 meter-wide (30 ft) wide and 7.7 meter-deep (25 ft) path through a ridge of hills using only a hammer and a chisel. After 22 years of work, Dashrath shortened travel between the Atri and Wazirganj block of Gaya district from 55 km to 15 km. He travelled to New Delhi to get recognition of his work and was rewarded by then Chief Minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar. Bollywood made a superhit movie on his biopic name Manjhi..

The area of Gehlor is really beautiful. It's surrounded by a lot of mountain range.

Really a great place. And being a Bihari I can say that you must visit to Manjhi Dwar not for tour but to see the love is blind. Manchin Ji made 120 metre long and 21 metre width road while cutting whole mountain.

Dashrath Manjhi is an inspiration - he single handedly craved a path through the rocks that reduced the time to travel to hospital. Read his full story
