Overall Community Sentiment
We have been working until now. They told us, 'We are SC voters, SC community members, let's work, do the work, and we will arrange for a low grant.' But after that, if they just form a society, we will have no support. If there's work, there's an opportunity; otherwise, there isn't. What's the benefit for us in inquiring further about this? This is about government work.

We are waiting for them to act in the future. Let's see when it will happen. We have taken this initiative, worked hard, and conducted business with the hope of some development today. They should have considered that.

We will contact everyone. We will explain any problem to them. We will give them the writings. So, for those who are not in contact, how do you think you can connect with them more? We need to finish their matter by contacting them like this.

We're trying to find out what is public technology mean in Malacote. So if you have answers and things, please contribute. We want to see what technology can help people.

After that, everyone gets involved in occupational matters. And until they get involved in the occupation, there is a problem. If all garments are taken, then (it's a) dog, because who are the weeders, who are they? And now, government writes about government crops.

Hey, we are here. Are they taking us away? They should look after us. Build a road for us. We are having trouble on that very road. Give us this land back, and those too.
— Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
That's the only job, putting it on, putting it on, what happens? It's going away. Oh, where, where should I inquire? I don't know. Go to the Social Welfare Department and bring it. We don't know where or what.
— Darshan S.K · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
We farmers have to maintain the expenses, we have to try to earn income accordingly, we have to use all these, I am looking at how much is needed here, the farmers will not do all that, the government gives two rice.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Hello sir, we have come from Lakshmi Sagar. We are housewives and want to do something. If we want to do something from home, you have to support us, or if we need something, you have to give us an idea. We will do anything, but it has to be from home.
— Bhargvi
Hello, greetings to all the madams and sirs. Many of our civic worker's children have gone. Even then, they say they will get jobs, but many people don't get jobs.
— Shram · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Tell me, sir, what kind of help? What help did we not get? What kind of help is needed? Now, if we want to grow crops, if we want to grow vegetables, we need money. We need fertilizer. Then the entire land needs to be leveled.
— Bhargvi
We, who are farmers, need to ask for our children to be farmers and educate them as well. For that, we need to raise awareness. For awareness to be created, our representatives or officials need to respond to it.
— Bhargvi
Sir, what happened there? We have an issue concerning Chiradi among us. People who were expecting more work from a certain side are just observing faces. The party thinks they are of that kind. Nothing will happen according to their wishes.
— Darshan S.K · Kharadya, Mandya, Karnataka
If it is necessary, what kind of problem is this?
— Bhargvi
There is an opportunity for a holiday. Tell me. Anthahalli Basavaraju. The problem in our village is that in this Kalvani street, there are three street lines, and the old line is causing a lot of trouble. Please get that done for us. Because it's old, we are facing a lot of problems with water supply. Please get that done. Also, there is no way for farmers to come after 4 or 5 o'clock for the bus. We need a separate road from Pandupura to Anthahalli. School children need a separate bus, and farmers also need a separate bus.
— Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Giriyarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
We need more people who will listen to us and be there with us as the problems are being solved
— Srinidhi Gurunath
Ha hmm, what do you think? If everyone else goes to enjoy themselves, what should happen to the farmers' children? Have the cities become such without farmers? They have grown up here until now, earning lakhs of salaries, and today they say they don't want farmers' children. Okay, you didn't write it, write it down.
— Uma mahadevappa
We say we won't give anything to those who say no. So they say they can't give everything. But even then, within our Panchayat limits or within our local Melkote area, what should happen is that...
— Manjunatha G B · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka
You weren't feeling well, were you? The boys are here to do labor. Now, this is all there is. Everyone has to go for daily wages. If even one packet is made, it would be helpful.
— Ranjan
Basani Basani sir, on behalf of farmers, if 'giving a girl' means 'not giving,' then farmers should have all the necessary facilities, they own land, they are working hard, they are involved in all aspects, and they are getting educated.
— Manjunatha G B
What kind of development do you want from us, tell us for the village and for us, for the village for the village?
— Darshan S.K · Ingalaguppe, Mandya, Karnataka
Many people are reporting problems with farming. We are trying to scale them, analyze all the feedback and determine the overall sentiment.
— beardcoded · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Hi, we are reporting a lack of jobs and training here in our constituency. We would like agriculture, organic farming, training in our constituency.
— Srinivas Mangipudi · Arpora, Baga, North Goa
Are you doing well? We are going for some work. Beyond that, we are leaving having gained nothing. What have we gotten? Why is there no development? What have the villagers done for us? We went for wages, but we were not paid.
— Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
In the PACS workshop related to circular economy, Sunkathonnur PACS president talked about the interest in exploring the value chain of tomatoes since farmers have lost a lot of money on tomatoes this season. Khova is something that can be explored through SHGs. To build these out, there is a need for cold storage, Godown and also Solarisations. However the PACS also needs lands where these can be carried out.
— Srinidhi Gurunath · Mysuru, Mysuru District, Karnataka
There is no factory in our village. We cannot do wage labor. Therefore, if the government establishes a factory, perhaps a garments factory or something, such a factory would help the ladies, it would help all of us. Any.
— Darshan S.K · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
What are they doing if they are calling by now? We would have gone and inquired, but oh, we don't even know where to inquire here. They told us to go to the Social Welfare Department, but we don't know anything about where or what to do there, so we didn't go.
— Likith Dip
To get a building license for us, they wrote to some rural mood, any urban mood, and there's no stop there, wait a minute.
— Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
The food prices are too high, what's the point of spending 3000-4000? Nothing grows. All the poor people are putting it in, or not putting it in. What can we do? We all work as laborers. If they do it or not, what can we do? After putting it in...
— Preetham P U
No, have you arrived, sir? We saw someone here in Pandavapura and they sent us to Pandavapura. Ha. Farmer. First of all, the government should first give us education, quality education, meaning, everyone should be given quality education. Farmer, farmer, farmer.
— Bhargvi
Do it, tell me, there is so much. There is no kitchen in one place, they couldn't even build that. Modi's drains are not clean, they haven't been built yet. The problem is the same on that side too.
— Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
Sir/Madam, we are from Melkote. Our Paramesh Gowda has made a lot of efforts for the development of Melkote in the past. Even now, Melkote lacks cleanliness and the tourists who come here don't have facilities. Neatness is also our aim.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
We are trying to check if this app works in Tamil. If it works, that's good. If it doesn't work, then we need to fix it.
— Soumya Sharma · Srirangapatna, Mandya, Karnataka
Our road should be developed, then the school, and then the hospital here. All of this needs to be developed. Some roads are not done. The power lines have all fallen down, so all that needs to be cleaned up and fixed.
— Likith Dip
What development is this?
— Uma mahadevappa
We have come from Balli to Pandavapura, sir. Tell me, sir, what should be done for the farmers' families regarding organic farming, and what will you do to help them grow vegetables and provide fertilizers?
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
There are a lot of problems in Pandavapura, especially regarding electricity and water scarcity. And I want to look into solutions. Instead of relying on software, why don't you build something else? When my friends visit this place... Right?
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Dear Legislators, Please guide our villagers on what kind of businesses they can establish with the resources they have and how to market them.
— Vinay E S · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
