I have come to know about Gram Panchayat Patwai of Rampur in UP. There was apond on the land of the Gram Sabha, but it was full of filth and heaps of garbage. With a
lot of hard work, with the help of local people, the help of local school children, that dirty pond has been transformed in the last few weeks. Now, many arrangements have been made on the banks of that lake like a retaining wall, boundary wall, food court, fountains, and lighting. I congratulate the Patwai Gram Panchayat of Rampur, the people of the village, and the children there for this effort.”
