gramabharathi 2014 event is coming on July 19th and 20th, 2014 (Saturday and Sunday))

Hi All,


The much awaited events for all of our gramabhrathi volunteers for this year 2014-15 is scheduled to be on July 19th and July 20th.

Note: The expected time being consumed to read below e-mail: 5 minutes
Please block your travel plan on these dates and be present in Jaladi.
Following are the tentative plans:
1) Continue distribution of fruit bearing plants and plant saplings on road sided and selected areas in Jaladi and other surrounding villages. Good that we are hearing that  at least our villagers are enjoying started talking about the benefits of our tree plantation.
2) setting up at least another 2 solar street lights in Jaladi (each will cost Rs.16k and we will get it for discounted price of Rs.10k, any of us or anybody from our village are contributing considerable  amount out of 10k, we will setup these poles at places as per their request, please pass on this info)
3) Talks are on to re-fence the lake near Jaladi temple and to re-construct the road near this lake which is being cut off with the help of government funds
4) Talks are being on to make the new lake by expanding the existing pit that is present at the south side of Jaladi village (opp. to church), This is being planned with the help of NSS team from Nagarjuna University and and from state government funds.
Thus setup lake will be used to water the regular needs of the christian community

5) Though re thinking about purchasing the water tanker that is going to cost 1.8 Lakh (too high than what we thought) and talks are in place to  lend one for free of cost for long term.
6) we are going to get nearly 100 fair cotton Tees and Caps  from Vodafone with our gramabharathi logo as well.
7) High-court chief justice (district collector may follow depending on the availability) will be attending our initiative this year.
8) sponsoring high school education for the students who are extensively supporting our gramabharathi program.
9) Last Year we have supported monetary fund for those who has worked for our plantation to construct toilets. This program needs more attention that required to educate more people in the village in this regard.
10) Recapitulation of our last 4 year success stories.
The July 19th and 20th, 2014 are the dates where we start with all the above said initiatives and will be continued through out this year.
As all of us are supporting the gramabharathi for the last 4 years, this year too we expect more physical participation and monetary support.
consider transferring the money to gramabharathi  society account:
SBI, kothaguda, A/C no. 33266095600, Hyderabad.
Please drop me an e-mail before you do the transfers or regarding physical contributions.
Please plan your travel for July 19th and 20th, your presence is more valuable to get inspired and be the inspiration for others.
Thanking you all,

watering of the plants on May 25, 2014



successfully completed watering the Plants on May 25, 2014
covered distances are : Edlapadu -> Jaggapuram -> Jaladi -> Ganesunivaripalem
Needless to say it has rained again on the same day night heavily for 3 hours proving that somebody else is helping us to work for a cause.
Also showing below is the solar street light that is setup near library.
Wish to thank Ghanta Rama Rao uncle who is behind this idea and setting this up on his own. Symbolically the plant beside the lamp post was again from our gramabharathi that we have planted 2 years before (hop eit won't obstruct the solar panel from getting sun light :-)). If this street light model is successful and going to work for long term we can install more in our village. any suggestions here?

Hi Gramabharathi,

send/suggest e-mails to sivarajesh.jarugula@gmail.com to get the e-mail added to group and get the occasional updates by e-mails
sometimes blog is also being updated http://jaladigramabharathi.blogspot.in/

Today is an auspicious day for us,
Date: 25th May, 2014,
Venue: Jaldi, Jaggapuram, Edlapadu, Ganesunivaripalem

Temparature: 45 degress and it is humididity that hurts more than temperature.
 


Our gramabharathi team is quenching the thirst of astomatous but so generous to give us shade, cool breeze, keeping environment balanced, keeping earth more fertile and let it preserve potable water.
Yes, I am talking about none other than our little plants that expects water only for this summer. For next 50 years, they do not expect any thing and will be in giving mode only.
With all this in mind, think of people who are watering those plants at 45 degrees temperature and covering 12km to where we have out little plants (by the way they are not so little, they are almost an year old, check out some of them: https://plus.google.com/photos/117159189074664047684/albums/6012580449175100513?authkey=CNafxYjTk-6a5gE )
Not surprised, I am guilty sitting here in Hyderabad in my house and not able to be there today in Jaladi to share the joy on a hot sunny day.
Other heart that might be pounding to miss this event : Ravipati Chaitanya,
He is on summer vacation to relative's place.
There is nothing you can compensate or compare with for the service and interest they do and show towards our well known picking up momentum
gramabhabharathi program 'Plantation"
They are:
Arjun Jarugula, Kartheek Jarugula, Venkanna Babai Jarugula, Sridhar Cherukuri, Nimmala Phani, Sankar Khambhampati, Surendra Bollineni, Rajesh malladi, venkateh Malladi, Surendra Manukonda, chandu Kondagunta, .....
Let us give them a not only a like in facebook, keep interested to participate for our next mega plantation events in and around our Edlapadu Mandal, medical camp, and more solar street light setups in Jaldi VIllages that are being planned for this July/August/Sep 2014
They day comes that not just few, but everybody realizes the efforts we are putting.
Few pics of then (when we have started plantation) and now (how do they look like): Please visti Jaladi main streets and imagine empty roads that were 4 years before, and feel the change with new big plants.
Check the plants for the 15Km stretch (edlapadu ->jaggapuram (little few in numbers), jaggapuram -> jaladi, jaladi->ganesunivaripalem, Jaladi -> karuchola,), it may take a full day to get snaps of all those many plants.
Doo not touch any plant by chance, because they tell you stories about our grama bharathi members, people from outside of our village who have really helped us in many ways to make a difference by understanding the need to work for a cause.
Get a chance to see the new solar street light pole near the Jaladi library.

Hi All,

As we all know Gram Bharathi is more concentrating on Tree plantation for this year.
As part that we have distributed fruit bearing plants in  our villages as well as surrounding villages. We can already see many plants are in fruite bearing stage that we have distributed in last 2 years.
Also we have taken up the green corridor project to plant saplings along road sides connecting the villages.

So far, We have covered the following 12km stretch:
Jaladi to Jaggapuram (Fencing covered)
Jaggapuram to Edlapadu (Fencing not covered)
Jaladi to Ganesunivaripalem (Fencing covered)
Ganesuni vari plame to Sandipudi (Fencing not covered)
Though we can overcome the watering problem, it is becoming increasingly difficult to protect from the cattle. Due to limited funds (most of them are being spent for fencing with prick, we have covered around 550 plants with fencing.
On this Saturday (19th oct), it is planned to cover the following 15km stretch with the help of  the respective villages to plant the saplings along the road sides:
PATHIPADU <----> GANIKAPUDI  <------> KPAARRU  <----> THURLAPADU
Please plan to attend or convey the information to the people we are interested in going green for our future.
Also attached the complete contribution list and expenses report for the last 4 years that Grama Bharathi has received. Please inform, if we miss any body in the list.

Thanks,

Please be in jaladi at 11 AM on 9th August, 2014.
Please follow the tasks as assigned to us on last sunday gramabharathi meet.
If we get enough funding we are planning to buy a water carrying tanker that can be attached to Tractor (that it costs arounf 1 Lakh rupees) . This tanker can be utilized for other needs of villagers as well.

This will answer most of our villagers comment that the planted saplings are not being taken care properly despite of the fact that it is our villagers responsibility who stays there.


Apart from shading tress the following Fruit Bearing saplings (bigger ones that heights around 3 to 6 feet) from famous Kadiyam nurseries:
Please call upon our kith and kins in our village to get these diversified plants and enjoy the fruits in coming years:

(Interesting fact is that many fruit bearing saplings that we have provided last year brought from Kadiyam are already showering with sweet yields in many houses, I will get snaps when I visit the village this time)
