Northeastern states with large tribal populations living in scattered rural settlements have been dependent on natural water sources for a long time. Water from natural sources such as springs is usually clear. It also has health benefits as minerals get dissolved in water and move through underground rocks. Springs containing a significant amount of minerals are sometimes known as ‘mineral springs’. A method is commonly known as rooftop harvesting in which rainwater is collected in tanks and is used by the villagers. This water can be used for direct consumption and for recharging groundwater through simple filtration devices. This stored water is used for drinking, gardening, irrigation and many other purposes. It is also one of the most promising alternatives for supplying fresh water in the face of increasing water scarcity and escalating demand in rural and urban areas. It is a sustainable form of utilisation of water without endangering the survival of future generations.]]> 2020-09-21 14:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/764489852 venkatassk https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/797931177 I also imagine my people in the village to be innocent and act like a child when they see a new technology or a new development taking place near them.

Improper disposal of waste produces leads to pollution and this sugar factory pollutes air with smoke from it's large furnace and water with it's solid and liquid waste that halts the irrigation way.

There are still many houses in my village which doesn't have proper electricity because of which I see many students struggling to study under candle lights, old people suffocating cause there are no fans running during summers, Farmers facing problems as their machines which don't work without electricity.

routine is to go to farms after my school. The beauty of a village lies in it's farms. The nature that is present there with all those trees and cool breeze. I experienced the enjoyment and work in farms in my childhood.
Coming to the gardens, growing some vegetables and fruits plants won't be that hard and we can enjoy and get food items from there. Growing a garden with natural methods will give us best organic fruits and vegetables.]]> 2020-10-02 15:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/797958636 https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799401290  HEALTH CARE CENTERS (Archana Muraleedharan)
There are quite a number of villages in the country which are so isolated from the main city that it becomes impossible to provide people with the  most required health facility. Maternal mortality rate is an example of this. Having a primary health center  can solve this problem to some extend. Apart from this people have to be made aware of the mandatory vaccinations and remove the misconception that many have. Another good option would be to come up with easy to handle medical equipment's which could help them out in emergency situations.]]> 2020-10-03 01:59:57 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799401290 venkatassk https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799409478 There are many villages with large amounts of agricultural lands but because of no proper irrigation facilities those agricultural lands are not being productive. So i expect my village to have good irrigation facilities do that people in the village can have food security, independent on monsoons and more agricultural productivity . So having dams for agriculture purpose can help in overcome water scarcity for agriculture and also it helps in providing drinking water. Dams also can protect villages from floods and droughts.]]> 2020-10-03 02:13:26 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799409478 indirabasumatary789 https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799520117 I had witnessed this technique in our Mata Amritanandmayi's ashram in Kerala. It is a type of composting in which a specific species of worms are being used to break down waste compost within a period of 3 - 4 months. But compost must be removed in stages as the worms process it. It is more efficient than ordinary composting and produces richer compost. These worm's optimal temperature range is around 15 - 35 degrees Celsius. Lower temperatures hamper reproduction and higher temperatures kill the worms or make them leave. Worms are very sensitive to drought so use of worms in very dry areas is not recommended unless a reliable water source is available. This compost material is later used in agriculture where the product does not contain any harmful chemicals or components.]]> 2020-10-03 05:58:55 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799520117 indirabasumatary789 https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799543035 Due to a major lack of toilets, some 600 million Indians are forced to defecate in the open. In rural India, this figure is as high as 65 percent. Many women, girls and elderly do feel a desperate need for a toilet, but they think that it is unreasonable to make the demand considering the financial crisis of the family and the struggle of their parents or head of the family. Furthermore, women and girls in rural India have limited access to feminine hygiene products as well as the day to day challenge of where to dispose of their makeshift pads. So now every household in Punsari has a toilet and a drainage system, the village has two functioning primary schools, a primary health centre and street lights around the village.
To ensure that the toilets are being used correctly, United for Hope regularly conducts workshops and WASH campaigns. The organisation has placed a teacher in one of the schools to carry on its programmes, especially around topics like proper hand washing.
WASH stands for Water, Sanitation and Hygiene and is a programme aimed at raising awareness around proper hygiene and sanitation usage.]]> 2020-10-03 06:55:34 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799543035 https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799578048 A village should have all basic infrastructural facilities like proper roads, houses which are properly made and most importantly efficient energy management system .In My village there are about 3 step wells constructed in different locations years ago as a way to collect in rainwater and later use it for various activities.

Village Disaster Management Committee(VDMC) is a committee in which some of the cautious people of a village make some important measures for the management of disasters coming their village.

Village Disaster Management Plan is defined as the planning process of the VDMC. It is a document prepared by the village community themselves based on their own hazard, vulnerability, risk, resource and capacity analysis, containing village profile supported by maps, emergency response and disaster risk reduction plans, listing out activities and pin pointing responsibility of the VDMC.]]> 2020-10-03 09:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/indirabasumatary789/x8zv6fslzjscz4lp/wish/799607803
