We went to Veerapur to do village study for three days from 17 to 19 February 2009. School is situated in the beginning of the village and there we met Head Master of the school and spoke about the purpose of the village study. He arranged our accommodation, later we collected the primary information about village from Anganwadi Teacher. During post lunch we started transact walk, interacted with villagers and observed house structure, colony water facility etc and also we went to see the lake and this is the second largest lake in the Dharawad taluk.
On the next day we went visit to houses and interacted with villagers to get information about their day to day activity. Number of the family members, occupation, source of income, cultural practices, agricultural methods, crops grown, life style, availability of water sources, information on sanitation etc were collected. Later we went to Ramapur because Veerapur belongs to Ramapur Gram Panchayth and gathered some information about village and returned to veerapur. Then we discussed with SHG member and got the knowledge about their activity. Later we conducted sports activity for the school children. Followed by this, conducted a discussion with unemployed youth and gave some suggestion and information about career opportunities.
