In last week of April , I got a chance to visit Birpur and Kosi Barrage. Birpur is a city and a notified area in Supaul district . It is a small town on the Indo-Nepal border near the historic Kosi Barrage on the Kosi River. A visit to this historic Barrage was really a fantastic experiance for me. you feel it , when you come across with fact that how Kosi has been tried to tamed at this point. Kosi - the "curse" of Bihar has only a couple of years ago played havoc with people of this area with unprecedented flood. In this visit some colleagues of our department were with me . Here are some photgraphs taken there:

yeah,nature ,in both its turbulent and tamed form can overwhelm us with its beauty and strength.and so many lessons can be learnt from it.and yes ,this is an example of man's use of intellect to subdue might of nature for his benefit. lovely sight n descriptive pictures.
