Family members of Ashok Kumar Gheda have lunch at Rukka Dam in Ranchi on Wednesday. Many others headed to Sidhu-Kanhu Park near Kanke Road within the city. Otherwise, we will have to pack up half way through our picnic,” Kanke Road resident Seema Das, who went there with her family, said. Though boats were available at Kanke Dam, there were no takers around noon. Rukka Dam, about 15km from the city, which is a popular haunt for picnickers around this time of the year, wore a deserted look.
