After his wife died due to lack of timely medical care, Dashrath Manjhi spent 22 years carving a road through a mountain using only hand tools.
Driven by the tragic loss of his wife to medical delays, Dashrath Manjhi single-handedly carved a 360-foot road through a solid mountain over 22 years with just a hammer and chisel. By reducing a 55 km journey to a mere 15 km, he ensured his village had faster access to medical aid—a route honored today as the Dashrath Manjhi Path.
