What great determination, what a great selfless service, he lost his wife because of that barrier but instead of giving up he decided that others will not suffer the same fate. These are the kind of men the world needs, men who do not believe in the word impossible. 1 Like |

The man has a Wikipedia page to his name already. I was even surprised the link wasn't from there. A movie has even been launched based on his touching action. Shows that it's not everything in life that's about money. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dashrath_Manjhi 3 Likes |

Let me tell you another aspect of this story. In one of the interviews, he accepted the fact that it was a move he made out of desperation. When his wife died, he contacted several governing bodies but 3 decades back his voice was suppressed. He even asked his fellow villagers to join his cause but they thought he was crazy and that it'd be impossible to slit the mountain apart. Finding no one around, he took up the task himself.

PortHarcourtBoy: Wetin dynamite go do in few days na him this jobless man spend 22 years on You too sharp I swear. Did you read the part where the government gave him and the villagers all the dynamite needed and he said no need, I will rather do it with my hands 3 Likes |

Kslib: Thank you Kslib. For the 'smart' ones writing that they could use dynamite to do the same task in few minutes, please read the article again. It began with almost 5 daecades ago (5 x 10 years = 50 years ago)when your dynamite was not a household name that your brothers Niger Delta Militants and Boko Haram Terrorists has made it. When you appreciate the tenacity in others your spirit man is challenged to spur you to greater things. Let us see wisdom in your comments please. |

The morale of d story is very clear and noteworthy : determination & hardwork lead to success. However why will one do a job for 22 years which can be done in a little time? Why couldn't he just blow d mountain up? Are there no dynamites? 1 Like |

Well, you have no idea about his locality. It is near my husband's native place and the village hides between two giant hills. Back then, there was no effective governing bodies due to naxalism and local conflicts. His all fellow villagers worked as bound labors. They would cultivate the lands of the elite farmers and in return they were given grains just to survive. You might be thinking that I'm portraying a medieval India..but the fact there still such villages exist onatisi: |
