Village Life in the Pandemic (December 2020)
After such a long spell of Lockdowns and unlocks we decided to call the Coolie Sangha cadre from each Gram Panchayat for day long meetings at Bagepalli.
This chronicle is not a recording of the minutes of the 6 meetings. It is a penning of the sum and substance of everything that 212 women and 191 men from 94 villages shared in 21½ hours spread over 6 days, interspersed with select anecdotes and authentic statements paraphrased to the best that my memory serves, ordered under 5 topics:
- The Pandemic
- Lockdown
- Crops & Cultivation
- Children's Schooling
- The Coolie Sangha
