#Blog on the Go - Deoghar Day 4- Driver's Wisdom

 A deeper dive into the local milieu of Deoghar. Williams Town to Manikpur is a 14 km , says the Driver. Simply put, this is a distance from my homestay to office.    

This driver's wisdom spreads from Dhandabad's Coal fields to Bokaro's steel plant. Dhandabad's air quality is poor and dust particles black, due to Coal, he says. Landlocked Rajasthan is finding its way to Sea. 

Even before I could marvel at this new info, he speaks of a protest & a mob attack in vicinity. That was too fast a derailment of enlightenment, for me.

Before he derails further, I nudge. Did Jharkhand's split from Bihar make an impact? He gives full marks to this separation. Deoghar in his list, is next to Ranchi.. while Bihar still has only Patna to speak off...
