Malpan: The house is made of mud and dry coconut leaves, belongs to the Priya family and Harijan Pramod, messy.
But outside the anniversary sitting two new solar panels provided by the government to supply electricity to the family in Harjanwada, at Khatode Pancayat from Sattari Taluka.
These two solar panels for residents of this remote hamlet – consist of 19 houses – identical to the issue of implementation of most government schemes in Harijanwada.
Here, children walk at least two kilometers through lonely forest lines to get to the nearest elementary school and, even though the government claims the Goa government is free to defecate, residents say most houses in the hamlet without toilets.
“We were asked to deposit RS 2,000 to get a toilet.
Someone had to walk four kilometers to get the bus and we barely made it there to find a job as a daily bet.
Where do we get the money to deposit the toilet?” Pramod said.
Priya, his wife, said he did not want to benefit from the scheme of Ujwala for the same reason, because he would find it difficult to get Rs 1,000 to recharge the LPG cylinder.
“Instead of solar panels, we will do our home if the same number is given to us.
Panchayat asks us to prepare files to get the benefits of home improvement, but will cost thousands only for transportation to take a round of government office for it.
If we Having that much money, we will repair our roof, “Pramod said.
The resident said it was only during the election that they saw an official or candidate trying to get to their hamlet.
They said that this time, the BJP candidate for Poriem, Deviya Rane, has stopped by to convince them their needs will soon be fulfilled.
However, the villagers did not feel so optimistic about the promises.
“Vishwajit Rane from Sattari Taluka We have become ministers in various governments for the past 15 years.
But our condition has never changed.
In the election of Zilla Panchayat, when we raised our demands with our pan, the pan said your voice would not be needed.
We don’t know Whether the same person triggered MLA because our work was never finished, “said Krishna Jana Harijan.
When there is no work job available, the family turns to their traditional work from a bamboo weave basket that must be sold for each RS 100 to make a living.
“There is no other way to earn in a remote place like that,” said the elderly Sharda Tamaram Harijan.
One and a half years ago, the village did get a bound road, which allowed three families with several sources of income to buy two-wheeled vehicles.
Vehicles are mostly intended when patients need transportation during medical emergencies.
“Just like solar panels, LED street lights are installed here, but no one comes to replace them as soon as they stop working.
Everyone ordinary will be afraid to sit here surrounded by the forest after sunset on the darkness of the pitch outside.
But we have to live With him, “Gued Shrikant Fotulo Harijan.
