Villagers are taking action for their dream

[Jayashri Kamble]

In the village of Nandwal, work has been going on for the last two years through SALT under Avani organization. Gram Panchayat, other villagers, children, and women had created a dream in their village. 

n the common village dream, the Gram Panchayat, and the villagers dreamed of planting trees in it. Everyone had this dream but no one could take the initiative because everyone thought that I could not do anything alone. We must all do it together. Through SALT, we have worked with many people and everyone realized that we have strength and we can do anything alone. 

Knowledge Fair has seen many changes in everyone. When they saw in the Knowledge Fair that communities were coming together to address their issues. This gave them courage that they could do it.

To fulfill the dream of the villagers, the Gram Panchayat took the initiative and everyone together with Avni Sanstha planted trees. Everyone is very happy that this is the first time in Nandwal that everyone has come together to plant trees. The sarpanch of Nandwal village himself stood camped from beginning to end to plant trees. A commendable initiative of planting a total of 151 trees in Nandwal village has been completed recently and the community is moving towards the dream for nandwal village.

Next step: Children and adolescents are excited that they will plant trees in the village School.
