There is a hot spring about 3-kms from Rishikund, on the other side of the Kharagpur range of hills, not far from the village of Dariyapur in the Jamalpur P.S. The name means the cleft of Bhaduria Hill, and the spring is much cooler than the Rishikund spring of which it is locally believed to be a branch. It emerges at the foot of the Bhaduria Hill from among masses of quartzite rocks, accompanied by a free discharge of gaseous bubbles, devoid of smell and uninflammable. Men and cattle drink the water of this hot spring. Its temperature goes up to 98.5� F.
