Club Corner @ NADT
Adventure Club hosts a trip to Bedaghat:
Adventure trip to Bedaghat to watch the Duandhar
water falls was undertaken under the auspices of the
Adventure Club. The journey began on Friday night
via bus to Jabalpur. After reaching Jabalpur the Offi-
cer Trainees took a bus to Duandhar Chowk and
from there it was a pleasant 5km walk to the village
in the rain.
After reaching the village, Officer trainees enquired
about the waterfall and took a walk for another one
kilometre and reached the waterfall point. The flow
of Narmada was so intense that the waterfall was
completely submerged by the river. It was a roaring
river and a thrilling sight to watch. After staying in
the banks for some time, OTs went for shopping in the nearby village and also travelled across the water fall on a
cable car.
They also made enquiries about the accommodation and food availability in nearby areas to bring other officer train-
ees in larger groups and were thrilled to locate one big affordable resort on the other bank of the river with a beauti-
ful sight of the Duandhar waterfall. They also saw the marble rocks
across the river and returned in the evening to Jabalpur.
After making few enquiries, They have decided to visit the Famous
Madan Mahal Fort built by the Gond Rani Durgavati and it gave a
beautiful view of the city as well and it was built on the support of a
single huge rock boulder. They also saw the famous balancing rock
boulders. Thus our brief stay in the Jabalpur came to an end by six’o
clock and its time to pack bags to Nagpur.
It was rather an exciting trip and special mention must be made about
the travelling aspects as this place was not very comfortably con-
nected by train bus journey had to be made and it was not at all com-
fortable as the roads were out of shape due to heavy rains
