Journalism of Courage
Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan laid a wreath and paid tributes to 'mountain man' Dasrath Manjhi at his Gehlaur village in Muhra block of Gaya, in Bihar.
Aamir Khan met Manjhi's family ahead of his popular television show, which deals with hard hitting social issues, and promised that his team would visit them in the next three days to offer assistance.
Season two of 'Satyamev Jayate' will start on March 2 with Manjhi's tale. (PTI)
Manjhi was a poor landless labourer, who created a road 360 feet long and 30 feet wide single-handedly with 22 years of labour from 1960 to 1982 to give his village easy access. Manjhi, who died seven years ago, gave villagers easier access to Atri block with hospital facilities. (PTI)
"This man is a life story of love and known world over for his commitment toward his wife," said Aamir. "I salute his courage and determination," he told reporters. "Making a road through difficult terrain after cutting rocks for nearly two decades reflects his determination, love and commitment toward his wife," the actor said. (PTI)
