A trouble called Phatak

Jagraon is divided into two parts by the railway lining.The two parts
are so near yet far apart.It is because the phataks remain closed most
of the time.At present there are 3 phataks.Tehsil road Phataks cannot
be counted as they are permanently closed.The phataks on the Nanaksar
side of the grain market are called the Lande phatak as they were not
unmanned earlier.Earlier they were very risky.Once I narrowly escaped
the train.The train at that place did not make much noise as the
surroundings were open and
the sound could not echo.It is good that there are Phataks at that place now.
