    🧑‍🎓 🗣️ 🚫

    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

    👨‍🌾 💻 💔

    We are children of farmers. No matter how much we earn, even if it's crores, people look for IT/BT jobs, outside jobs, good clothes, and good cars. That's why they hesitate to give their daughters to farmers. This issue is not yet resolved.

    — Siddappa

    🚧 💧 🚫

    Madam/Sir, that's why meters haven't been installed. Also, for those roads, normally some necessary work hasn't been done. The pipeline has been laid well. Some (connections) work, some don't. Some taps get damaged repeatedly. Water is not reaching them. They haven't provided for the future.

    — Ranjan · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🌾 🏙️ ❓

    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

    🚰 🔌 🚫

    They are experiencing a problem that stems from Kudandikol (or a specific system/source). Water is not reaching the last point, and this is causing numerous issues. When electricity, especially phased current, is supplied, people turn on their motors. This leads to insufficient water flow at the final level, and also affects the drainage.

    — Uma mahadevappa

    🚧 🚫 😠

    Even if we ask them to clean the drains, they won't do it. There's a lot of swimming and roaming around. Even if we ask them to build a road, no one properly builds one. The machines and street lines have been there for many days, for many days.

    — Darshan S.K

    🏠 🚧 😡

    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

    👷 💰 🚫

    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.

    — rakshitha raju

    🏘️ 🗑️ ✨

    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

    👨‍🌾 💪 🛠️

    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

    🌾 🧑‍🎓 💔

    I am requesting you to speak in the legislative assembly regarding the necessity for farmers' children to first understand agriculture, and also concerning the issue where the daughters of farmer friends are not getting married.

    — Ranjan

    👨‍🌾 💸 🍚

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 🧹

    But in some places, there are no drainage systems and no road systems, and in places where there are road systems and drainage systems, there is no proper cleaning of them. There should be proper cleaning and locals should also be aware of this, this is our program.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🧑‍🤝‍🧑 📉 🌱

    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

    🌾 🚧 🚚

    Now, we have some of our lands in the T.H. Sidra area. Okay, we have a significant road problem for our land there. This is because, from there, we have to carry things for a minimum distance. Even if we grow any crop, there's no proper road now, nothing at all.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    💰 📉 🚫

    In our village, people have eaten the society's money, the society is in loss, the dairy is in loss, there is a road problem, and there is a street light problem. No matter how much is done or posted, it's not put up now, one

    — rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    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

    👷 💸 😔

    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

    👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 🚧 ✊

    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

    ❓ 🧐 🚫

    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

    🚧 📝 🚫

    So, regarding our Washermen's Street in Aruna, people, including members, have submitted requests many times for the construction of the road. However, they proceed without responding to or even properly acknowledging any of those applications.

    — Darshan S.K · Ingalaguppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🧑‍🌾 💡 💼

    In agriculture, what we mean is that new methods should be introduced, and young people in the village should get this work. What work is available for farmers' children, mostly?

    — Likith Dip · Machahalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    👨‍🌾 🔇 🙏

    Sir, in our Melukote assembly constituency, in the Gram Panchayat ward and Taluk Panchayat ward, officials are not responding properly to farmers. Please rectify it properly.

    — Pramodh k s

    🧑‍🎓 🏃‍♀️ 🏠

    Many educated young men and women from our town go to various capital cities. It is our request that we establish as many skilled and small-scale industries as possible here.

    — Likith Dip · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka

    👶 ⛽ 👀

    Oil is not being provided to farmers' children; a little attention should be paid to that.

    — Manjunatha G B · Aralakuppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏗️ 🚫 🙏

    I am speaking from Ennolle Kuppali. The entire village is being developed, but they are not doing it in front of our house. When asked why it's not being done, they say it hasn't been sanctioned here. Mr. Darshan Putani, please come for the groundbreaking ceremony.

    — Meenaa Shankar · Ennehole Koppalu, Mandya, Karnataka

    🧑‍🌾 📉 ❓

    Farmers are not getting the right price and not getting the right information also about the market. There should be clear ways to find these out otherwise very difficult.

    — Shram

    🌍 💪 🤪

    Health is still okay. It's a difficult time, today's children have no other diseases. Girls there, boys there. Just kidding, sir. Okay, sir.

    — Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚌 ⏰ 🏫

    We have a lot of vehicle problems, children are having a lot of trouble going to school. The vehicle only comes at 9:30 in the morning, which causes a lot of problems. If anything, only one in the afternoon.

    — Ranjan

    🚰 🔒 😔

    They are doing things they shouldn't be doing. My name is Jayamma. They said 'ant nalli' (referring to a specific tap/connection). Water has become a problem here. We came to this tap, but if we go to that tap, there's no water in this tap. We don't get even a drop of water. After they've taken it, we either get it or we don't. They scold us. Those who install taps scold us. We can't do that now. Water has become a big problem for us. They say they will cut all the water. The water problem has already hit us, we have nothing. We don't have water to drink. Where will we drink from? There is no water anywhere. If we go to one person's tap, the other person won't give water from their tap. What else are we supposed to do? Look at us. Look at the water. They had placed a valve here, but they've closed the valve here. They've closed the valve here. It's only one valve. If we need water there, we can take it. If we go to their tap, if we go to these people's tap, water won't come into the bucket. Do you understand our situation?

    — Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Giriyarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🧑‍🌾 📚 🏛️

    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, they said a letter came from the panchayat stating our road would be ready, but then they claimed a stay order was issued. To this day, no one has investigated the matter.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🛣️ 🚫 🙏

    We need roads. We don't have a road to go down here. We need roads there too, but there are none. Father, we need roads. Also, there is a drinking water facility.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 💧

    The main entrance road of Halavu Kuppa is not good for entering the village. The water supply is not proper. Even though water normally comes, there is no proper drainage system. There is no main drainage. There are no roads inside the village, mainly.

    — Likith Dip

    🍚 🚫 👩‍🌾

    If there are only men in the field, where will the food come from? There won't even be rice available later. Therefore, women also need to work patiently here.

    — Darshan S.K · Haravu, 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

    🚧 🚶‍♀️ 😔

    There is no road system in our area. The drain construction is half-finished. We raise cows that eat 'boosa' (fodder), and we have to carry this 'boosa' from another street. We have absolutely no road system here. Someone has said that no one will provide a road. They have stopped the drain and road work.

    — Manjunatha G B · Kanaganamaradi, 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

    🚧 🚫 😠

    Brother, he hasn't properly covered the soil and left. Not even one street road is correct. Not even one drainage pipe is correct. There's no neatness. The light poles, brother, they take money from the Panchayat, they come, brother, but they haven't installed a single light. What haven't I done, sir? This circle, brother, here's the circle.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    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.
