About Moving in Katras

Katras is a coal mining town south of Dhanbad, home to several active BCCL collieries and the Katras Garh hill that provides a scenic backdrop to an otherwise industrial landscape. The town has a mix of BCCL worker colonies with standardised housing, old bazaar areas, and newer private developments along the Katras-Dhanbad Road. Coal truck traffic dominates the roads, and the mining-town character means infrastructure is functional but basic.
