7 neighbours have shared what matters to them — in their own words.
“Nare Nareka drum gold Nanda Maadikalere Nookanala eye also okay?”
“నరే నరేక మదలం బంగలం నంద మాదికాలేరే నూకనల నయనం సైత సరేన”

In your area, citizens are highlighting the importance of cultural preservation by women and girls 🎶, alongside strong aspirations for rural development, including universal access to water, electricity, internet, and permanent housing 🏡. There's also interest in promoting sustainable agricultural practices like dry farming and seed saving 🌱, and integrating traditional foods into school meals. While some submissions celebrate progress and local leadership, a significant concern remains regarding historically persistent challenging conditions.
“Whether in earlier times, or during Gushe Baba's era, or during the period of our English government, our situation was always like this.”
“Traditional food should be served in the school's midday meal.”
“The main objective of developed India is that every village should have water, electricity, internet, and all villages should have permanent houses.”
“Women and girls preserve traditional games, songs, dance, and culture.”
“I am doing dry farming and I will save seeds for next year.”
“Bring this and give it to them. I brought it. Put this here. I brought it. (The phrase 'I brought it' is repeated extensively throughout this section, interspersed with instructions like 'Put this here,' 'Come here,' 'Bring this and give it,' and 'Bring it and give it there.') One of the specialities here is this advancement. When we look at all this progress, the current president, Srikanthayya, is the house owner there. He is also a former soldier. He serves in both capacities, meaning he has two more years in office, but if a by-election comes before that, I am confident he will definitely win. He wishes to state that.”
