GRAM CHETANA

10 feb 2009

Morning 9 o’clock to 12:30 we spent our time in Village stay preparations. After that we started our journey from hubli to “GRAM CHETANA”(BAIF) before going there I would not imagine such a cool place they are bringing us. When I saw it, I thought it is a “Heaven on Earth” and each and every thing, plants, rooms, has “it own meaning”. Some kind of supernatural power has made these all things. All the natural things I felt in Gram Chetana. Thanks Naveen for giving such a wonderful moment.

Deepak sir(Bharatiya Agro Industries Developmental Research Foundation) told their own experience working with community people. They struggled lot to fulfill the Vision of BAIF. How they worked in PRA exercise? How they got confidence by people? All these things they shared with us. Initially it was too difficult and there is no shortcut to get participation from them but it was not impossible, through working hard they built good rapport, then their work become easy. They completed their project with success. Building Gram Chetana was dream but with the help of WADI project people it came into real success.

Ding-Dong Night

After PRA we came back to "GRAM CHETANA". It was night 9 o’clock we had our dinner, and our Camp fire was organized. We enjoyed with Naveen and Chinnababu, all were James bond in our class. “Antakshari” playing I liked a lot. Nice friends, Nice Night, Nice Climate, Marvelous Mood, Nice songs, Nice Dance….
