#Doddane of Chamrajnagar district of Karnataka surrounded by hills. You have to walk almost 7 KM to reach to this village. No clean drinking water, no gas, no medical facilities and no roads too. @yuva_brigade has decided to adopt this village and make it heaven. #GramSvarga 
This village has 150 houses with population of around 800. This is the first hill of 77 hills which has the highest influence of Male Mahadeshwara the local deity. The people have to trek 15 KM even for a Kilo of Rice. They have seen electricity recently!
No medical facilities. Spoke to lady who was sleeping on road suffering from fever as she could not walk continuously in that condition! A father carrying his child told us that he’s coming from hospital after treatment to his son. Walk all the way 15 KM for a simple treatment?
Visited the village for third time as we are determined to work for the betterment of village. Spoke to the people and convinced them for a collective effort in making the village Swarga. Their response was amazing.
Distributed some notebooks, chocolates, and compass box to the students here. There are 30+ students in the school. 1-7 all in one class room handled by a single teacher! Many are sending their children to nearby villages keeping them in hostels! Planning for a better education.
Soon we are starting a camp for honey bee cultivation and with the help of YB volunteers painting the walls of the class rooms. We need toilets immediately and want to solve the drinking water problem.
This project is called #GramSvarga abhiyana and I hereby give challeng to all the MPs of Karnataka so that they can chose one village from their constituency and decide to make it svarga. Let’s see how many will turn up?

Please tag your MPs and ask them to take up one village this year. Let us not cry after five years but make them work from Day one!! 🙏
