1. (picture attached) The Katunayaka tribals from 3 villages gathered in one village and the fruit tree saplings were unloaded in a common place and distributed to them. Women were more in number and they helped carry the tree saplings. It felt good to learn that most of the tribal girls were degree holders! and one of the girls has done her MSW!! There was laughter and happiness in the air. Our volunteers and the tribals went around and helped in the planting of saplings.
The planting continued and our volunteers could take food only at 4.30 pm and reached back at 12 midnight.
This planting of 250 fruit trees for Katunayaka tribals of Gudalur Panchayat was sponsored by N.Ranga Rao and Sons, Mysore.
