Hue of abandonment


On my way to Bargi Dam from Jabalpur, I caught a glimpse of Tilwara Ghat. It is said that Mahatma Gandhi’s ashes were cast into the river Narmada at this Ghat, a piece of information which has led Tilwara Ghat to assume a place in history as well as make way into itineraries.

An old bridge, from the days of British Raj, still stands over Narmada at Tilwara Ghat.

“As the sun traced its descent into the end of another day’s story, an old abandoned bridge stood stern, in all its character and glory.”
