This is Palani bharathi. There is no India without villages. Villagers are the soul of India. India will no more be India if there is no villages. This will lose its aim in global level. Its been more than 6 decades that Gandhi told this. But the angle in which Gandhi has told, is still remains the same. The rulers may not like it, Govt may wish that let all the villagers lead a nomadic life in cities. But even now villages are the life of India. Even India is moving in that direction. Today you may live in any metro city, but if you go 30 miles you will find a village. Yes!! India lives in villages. But what is the status of villages??!! Definitely its not in happy state. Not slowly, but in much faster way its losing its beauty. Who is responsible for this? Govt? or Officers? or corrupt politicians? No!! Definitely not!! If we are giving such answers it means we are cheating ourselves. We are responsible for this!! yes it we!! Our ignorance is the main reason for this!! We are ignoring villages. In straight words, there is no opportunities in villages. We think what will happen if it is demolishing. We believe that living in cities is pride. So we are ignoring villages. But lets not forget 1 thing. Villages are the roots. if we fertilize the root, it will spread across the branches and grows strong. As per the latest census, almost 70% of people are still living in villages. Now you may live in city, you may enjoy all the facilities given by it. Go to your villages. Do take part in gram sabha which is happening there. Talk to your people there. Discuss with them and put-forth the things which are necessary for that villages growth. If the liquor shop in your village is destroying you villages lifeline, then make them to take decisions against that liquor shop. Make them to take decisions to dig and clean the lakes and river areas in your village. How much have you spent for your village? whether it has been spent properly? Check it and be part of social auditing. Without knowing what is needed for people, Govt is just stuffing unrelated thing. Dont allow for it. Use this gram sabha to give what is need for your village. Growth doesnt come from top, it comes from root. Work in its roots. Thank you

Lakshmi: Brother... How are you? Silvanus: My dear, we met yesterday and again today you are asking me how are you? Lakshmi: Oh yeah!! we met yesterday. I totally forgot in my busy work schedule Silvanus: Did you forget what all I told you about Gram sabha yesterday? Lakshmi: Brother... Dont under estimate me. I will tell you what all you explained me yesterday about Gram sabha. Silvanus: Oh really!! Let me see.. Tell me Lakshmi: Gram sabha is like parliament in our panchayath. Court has ordered to follow decisions taken in gram sabha. For example, if gram sabha decides to shut down liquor shop in their village, nobody can start liquor shop there. Gram sabha is very powerful. The gram sabha meetings happen 4times in a year, i.e on January 26th, May 1st, August 15th and October 2nd. Silvanus: Very good... Who will believe if I say you are uneducated. You are very brilliant. Super. I asked you to share it with your friends and neighbors. Did you share? Lakshmi: Yes.. I have shared it with everyone. We all are going to participate in tomorrow’s gramsabha in our panchayath. Silvanus: Very good my dear. Please do participate in gram sabha. But before that, know the process of gram sabha. It will be useful for you when you take part in it. Lakshmi: Sure brother Silvanus: Gram sabha should be headed by Panchath council head. 7 days before that meeting the gist of meeting should be discussed with panchayth council members and the report should be prepared. Lakshmi: Who should prepare the report brother? Silvanus: Of course panchayath head!! Lakshmi: Okay.. How will they intimate people about this? Silvanus: It will be done through public announcement or by giving pamphlets and by sticking posters in main areas. Lakshmi: Oh okay Silvanus: Same way, these meeting should not happen in any particular religion places. If there are many villages in a particular area, on rotation basis gram sabha meetings should be conducted. On the same day Income and expenditure account will be read on this day. If district collector or Rural development director wants to discuss any specific point, they must discuss it on that day. Lakshmi: Ohhhh… So many things are involved Silvanus: Yes!!! Tomorrow when you attend, make sure that everything is happening. If they are missing something, you should question them. Lakshmi: Definatly I will brother. And one more thing brother.. Silvanus: Please ask my dear Lakshmi: My friends anted to know whether food will be provided during gram sabha? Silvanus: There you go!!! Our people will never change. If they get anything to eat, they will nod their head for anything and everything. Then how can we find growth? Everyone will cheat. Lakshmi: What are you saying brother? Silvanus: Yeaa my dear!!! For every meeting, they can spend up to Rs1000 from panchayath fund. But our people will be more focused it and they will eat and leave the place. But this time it should not happen like that. For that people like should take responsibility. Lakshmi: Brother.. Thanks for sharing this. Now you will show that we will not nod our head for whatever they say. We will prove that we are human beings with 6th sense. Silvanus: Very good!!! You said it beautifully. My dear friends participate in tomorrow’s gram sabha in your area and observe what all we said are happening or not. If its not happening be brave and question them. Prove them that you will no more nod your head for anything and they can’t fool you anymore. Make use of your rights properly.

I am Anand from Gopichattipalayam. Online class for kids is not fruitful. There is a difference in online class and direct class. Kids cant handle online class. Online classes should be banned. Direct class itself cant be understood by all. Online class is possible for those who can afford.
