[www.keralites.net] P G Sudha She was instrumental in setting up around 497 toilets in nine tribal colonies [1 Attachment]

 

P G Sudha She was instrumental in setting up around 497 toilets in nine tribal colonies. 
 

KOCHI: P G Sudha broke the conventions when she chose the life of a forest officer. It takes unique courage to travel 16 km per day through dense forest, braving the odds. There are many to tackle too. Tough terrain. Wild beasts. Poachers. But the 49-year-old, who is working in the Kuttampuzha range, has not scowled even once. Along with surmounting the gender barriers, Sudha recently won the state government's recognition for contributing in an altogether different field.

She was instrumental in setting up around 497 toilets in nine tribal colonies spread inside the forest as part of the Open Defecation Free (ODF) campaign. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had presented the award to her during the Open Defecation Free declaration function on November 1. Nothing comes easy for the inhabitants of these colonies in Kuttampuzha panchayat in Ernakulam district.

It takes three hours travel by foot to reach these tribal settlements. Contractors were not ready to take up the task of setting up toilets in these colonies because carrying the building materials through the forest would cause a three-fold jump in construction cost.

Please open the attached file listing  her amazing success.

[www.keralites.net] Columbus and his Historic Voyage - Life from Greater Heights!

 

Columbus and his Historic Voyage.

 

When Columbus set out on his Historic voyage which culminated into the discovery of America, he certainly had to sail through extreme rough weather and possible fatal violence from the men he commanded.

As they kept sailing day after day across the vast Atlantic, no land appeared. Sailors threatened mutiny and demanded that ship should turn back.

Life of Columbus was at risk from the fierce men. But he was undaunted and determined to pursue his goal.

Each day, he entered just two words in captain's log book on the unending Sea: "SAILED ON".


 

 

¥¥¥¥¥¥

Life from Greater Heights!

 

When you see Taj Mahal from the ground nearby, the Monument appears huge. But, same Taj Mahal, when seen from an airplane, looks tiny.

Same way, when you achieve Greater Heights in Life through Intelligent Hard Work, Patience Sincere Prayers, which takes you closer to formless God, you feel, all Materialistic Achievements and Pleasures insignificant compared to Peace, unbound Joy, Happiness and Fulfillment you get through Positivity, being Humble Forgiving, always in Gratitude, Helping those who need a helping hand and by being Generous in Giving, Sharing God's plentiful bounties with others.

DO NOT LET YOUR LIFE BE SPENT ONLY FOR MATERIALISTIC GAINS PLEASURES.

LIFE HAS LOT MORE TO OFFER WHEN YOU LOOK FROM GREATER HEIGHTS.

Capt. Ravi Mahajan Retd.
