"Real kahani" yaani ek sacchi ghatna par adharit kahani ka apna hi ek alag asar hota hai. Main aapke liye Bharat ke ek aise "Unsung Hero" ki kahani likh raha hoon, jinhone akele dum par pahaad cheer diya tha.
Yeh kahani hai Dashrath Manjhi ki, jinhe duniya "The Mountain Man" ke naam se jaanti hai.
Dashrath Manjhi: Ek Junoon ki Dastaan
Bihar ke Gaya zila ke ek chhote se gaon, Gehlaur, mein ek gareeb mazdoor rehta tha—Dashrath Manjhi. Unka gaon aur duniya ke beech ek vishal pahaad khada tha. Is wajah se gaon walon ko hospital ya bazaar jaane ke liye pahaad ghoom kar 70 kilometer ka safar tay karna padta tha.
Woh Haadsa Jisne Sab Badal Diya
Ek din Dashrath ki patni, Falguni Devi, unke liye khana lekar pahaad par chadh rahi thi. Unka pair phisla aur woh buri tarah zakhmi ho gayi. Pahaad ki wajah se Dashrath unhe jaldi hospital nahi le ja paaye aur raste mein hi unki maut ho gayi.
Dashrath toot chuke the, lekin unhone us dukh ko ek zid mein badal diya. Unhone thaan liya ki jo unke saath hua, woh kisi aur ke saath nahi hoga.
Ek Chaini aur ek Hathauda
1960 mein, Dashrath Manjhi ne ek hathauda aur chaini uthayi aur us vishal pahaad ko kaatna shuru kiya.
* Logon ka mazaak: Shuruat mein log unhe "pagal" kehte the. Log puchte, "Ek akela aadmi pahaad kaise kaat sakta hai?"
* Akele ka sangharsh: Unhone na sarkaar ki madad maangi, na kisi sanstha ki. Woh din bhar mazdoori karte aur baaki waqt pahaad todte.
* Samay ki pariksha: Yeh kaam ek do saal nahi, balki poore 22 saal tak chala.
Jeet ki Kahani
1982 mein, Dashrath ne namumkin ko mumkin kar dikhaya. Unhone 360 feet lambi aur 30 feet chaudi raah bana di. Jo rasta 70 kilometer ka tha, woh ab sirf 1 kilometer ka reh gaya tha.
Kahani ki Seekh
Dashrath Manjhi humein sikhate hain ki:
* Insaan ka irada pahaad se bhi bada hota hai.
* Zid agar sahi disha mein ho, toh itihaas racha ja sakta hai.
* "Jab tak todenge nahi, tab tak chhodenge nahi!"
Kya aap chahenge ki main kisi aur mashhoor shakhsiyat ya kisi aisi hi preranadayak (inspiring) ghatna par kahani likhoon?
