Jhargram is around 180 KMs from Kolkata and one can do a same day round-trip very conveniently. The roads are good and the traffic is mostly sparse once you hit the highways.
I started early and stopped for a Paratha breakfast at Azad Hind Dhaba. (https://maps.app.goo.gl/xtfecLTmCnJYCYvU9)
Once you cross Kolaghat the roads are mostly empty and you can enjoy the view of road-side lush greenery. As it was the paddy cultivation time.
