children in their studies, the SHg has announced a cash prize for the student
who scores the highest in class 10.


With my involvement, the gram Panchayat is providing Mallika, a specially-
abled girl with free computer training. I am fully involved in the Pulse Polio
Programme and it is held twice a year in the Panchayat. We have told mothers
about the importance of administering polio vaccine to children below
five years of age by doing door-to-door canvassing. To maintain cleanliness
and secure good health for villagers, we advised the farmers to transfer cow
dung manure out of the village. We invited doctors to advise people to take
precautionary measures to avoid diseases spread due to mosquitoes. I have
also taken the initiative to provide a skill development Programmes for three
others in tailoring and sewing machines have been sanctioned for each of
them. They are all self-employed now.


I have worked hard with other members in the Panchayat to construct good
roads, a drainage system, to provide streetlights, rural houses, and other
facilities to the village people.
