Being a remote village the transportation facilities available include only a few public transport buses and cycles and bikes. ]]> 2020-09-20 07:05:36 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/761671094 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/761677124 Being a hill-top village, the region is prone to landslides and even shortage of drinking water during summer.Above all there is only one small primary health center here and getting a medical emergency help is very difficult.And during summer, if the dams are going to shut down the operation, then the village along with a few nearby villages will face frequent power failures. Even though the govt has invested in tourism here, the basic amenities are still not completely available.The communication to outside is really difficult as the network issues are weak.These are some of the major issues that persists in this region. Implementing a land slide detection system will reduce the impact of the same. In order to face the water shortage, the best way is to promote rain water harvesting. The power failure can be overcome by making each house-hold self reliant in their own power supply using solar cells]]> 2020-09-20 07:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/761677124 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/761713719  It's a nature rich area.

I wanted to go closer into the fields and after spending about a week there in the village, it felt totally refreshing and different from what I was used to be living in and also changed the total perspective and fear of living in a village.
Everyday, I used to walk through the small lanes between the fields surrounded by big trees in the village with my family and spend some time there. ]]> 2020-09-20 21:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/762436765 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/762441579 I have once visited a village area during holidays before the pandemic. It had a really pleasant vibe to it right after the moment I entered the village, because of the people and a different kind of  surroundings which I am not usually used to.
The place I stayed at was in the middle of paddy fields in the village and everyday morning when I opened my windows and doors I was welcomes by the fresh air from those fields and also people.]]> 2020-09-20 22:04:46 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/762441579 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/762465343 Yes , I went to a village with low infrastructure and facilities. But I felt that all the people in that small village and small houses were more connected to one another than the people who live in huge cities. They were always people greeting me or my family members i was with when we were passing by the lanes or sitting outside in the evenings. Also I felt that, it is so much better to live in such a place with low signals because then people will not be using mobile phones or other devices often and will stick with people more often which felt a little funny also while giving a thought to it. 
Apart from that, there were no western or some special food and drinks but everything I ate or drank was fresh, clean and healthy which is very good for everyone and it is becoming really hard in these present times to find such quality food.

One of the evenings that I spent there, I climbed a small hill nearby that village and had some awesome view that evening. From that peak, I was able to see the   Lake nearby on the other side, all the houses scattered all around, a single tower for the whole village and a lot of trees even covering up that tower.
I felt that the village could have a proper hospital with good facilities and some internet centers scattered away from the homes which I think would have developed by this time. Apart from that,I was really happy that I visited that village.So, I really support the statement that I once heard that Villages are the lungs play a main part to our society.]]> 2020-09-20 22:33:35 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/762465343 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/799520107 (Ananthalekshmy A)
The energy to the village is supplied from the substation from the Dam in the area. This can be saved if the climate of the region is made use of.This can be done by using solar cells in the rooftop of the homes. ]]> 2020-10-03 05:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/799520107 https://padlet.com/renjithmcent/sby5r7d9ma6k1ho3/wish/799527982 (Ananthalekshmy A)
