Defunct iron factory linked to Dalai Lama sees renewed hope of resurrection every election season
Once a major avenue for employment in the region, the factory has been shut for the better part of four decades now. Despite this, the people of the region hold out hope that it will be returned to its former glory. These hopes are fuelled every election cycle, with promises forgotten every results day while administrative apathy pushes the people of Koderma out of the region.
