The first oil well of India
The first oil well of India is in Digboy, Assam. It is the oldest oil well dates back to 1867. That time,British were ruling India.
Till now, oil is being extracted from the well. When British officials were touring that part of India, they observed roaming of elephants. They noticed that there was something like mud was attached to legs of elephants. But they could make out that it is oily.
The officers traced back the elephants' foot stop and reached to that spot. The water obtained there contained highly oil content. Then , the first oil well is known and people started digging oil from there. Till today, oil is being extracted from there.
