WHY NAMSTE SUPPORT THIS PROJECT? 73% area of Kanthallur Gramapanchayath is covered by forest. The only source of income for the community is agriculture. Winter crops are the major crops. Naturally, the cultivation is seasonal. Since the area is rocky, it is impossible to dig wells and irrigate land. The people collect water for drinking from Springs far away. They have to walk several kilometers to fetch the water. The Jalanidhi project of the State government supported by World Bank is being implemented in the Panchayath. 75% of the expenses are met through the World Bank support, 15% by the Panchayath and 10% by the Beneficiaries. The Beneficiary contribution per person will community mobilization cultural activities come up to Rs. 4000. The poorest of the poor who could not afford to raise this amount was supported by Namaste. The Namaste's help has ensured that drinking water is available for all households in their respective houses. A sanitation program is also being implemented.
