NICE
WEATHER: If you ever met person lived in Jagdalpur he will surely tell
you that Jagdalpur has very nice weather not much heat and not much cold
but surely is having lot of rains. It Rains in Summers, Winters
nullifying the effect of heat and cold. People here thus find it
difficult to stay at other parts of country as other places have extreme
temperatures. Jagdalpur has very nice climate.

which Lord Ram is said to have passed. Rishi Valmiki's Ashram is also
