    Day 1

    The first day started with four of us, heading to Hatigaon were the main Office of
    the NGO Amar Prayash Gosthi, is located. There we met the Chairman Of The NGO,
    Sir Anwar Hussain. We came to know about the NGO through Google. There we
    discussed about the various issues and objectives that the NGO has accomplished
    throughout the years. There we had a collective meeting and the chairman Sir Anwar
    Hussain gave their visions and perspective.

    The NGO has achieved the following goals throughout the years.
    1. Natural Disaster Management
    2. Brahmaputra Riverbank Erosion Risk Management
    3. Fight against Child Molestation
    4. Free Education for children under BPL
    5. Fight against the Child Labour

    After discussion we came into the topic of RESOLVING PROBLEMS FACED IN


    RURAL AREA.
    We chose the region of Udayanagar, located at the hilly region of Guwahati.

    Day 2

    The next day begins, heading to Lal Mati from were we took a ride to the Udayanagar
    Region. After climbing a few steps we managed to reach the Sub Office of Amar
    Prayash Gosthi in the region of Udayanagar, were the Chairman Sir Anwar Hussain
    was waiting for us. There we further discussed about the topic. He introduced as the
    various locations, sites, offices and institutions located in Udayanagar from where
    we could collect the necessary information related to our survey.

    The institutions located in Udayanagar were


    1. Mon Vikash Kendra ~ A home for Mentally Retarded People
    2. Mandir L.P. School, Udayanagar
    3. Directorate of Geology and Mining
    Day 3

    It was our third day, and our first task started from Mon Vikash Kendra ~ A home
    for mentally Retarded People. It was basically a place were Mentaly Retarded
    Children are looked after and taught. We met the Principal of Mon Vikash Kendra,
    Sir Satyandra Thakuria. There we introduced ourself, being from Assam engineering
    College and that we were having a survey on the Udayanagar region, regarding the
    common problems faced. There we had about 23 students. The main objective of the
    institution is to make the students self-dependent and to make them do their daily
    activity by themselves. In 1988 they were funded by Indian oil. But since then they
    hadn’t receive any support and were seeking fund and further training regarding the
    developement of the institution and for the wellfare of the students. One of the main
    problem faced by them is the water supply problem. Due to its location in hilly area,
    they do not have direct contact to the Underground freshwater supply and had to
    depend on buying water supply. 1000 litre representing 1 unit costs about Rs. 15.
    But the cost per unit increases to Rs. 20 when number of units purchased exceeds 15
    units. Another major problem faced by them is the presence of High Tension Electric
    Wires by the Play Ground Field. It becomes very difficult for them to take
    precautions regarding the safety of the Mentaly Retarded Students

    Earthquakes and Landslides was out of Station for work.

    Then we decided to visit one of the residential of Udayanagar region to find out the
    views and their day to day problems. We talked with one of the residentail named
    Khalidar Rahman. From the discussion we came to know about the following data.

    Day 5 started visiting the Saragpur L.P. School of Udayanagar. There we met the
    Principal of the L.P. School named Mr. Satrapati Talukdar. There we discussed the
    matter regarding the problems faced by them and any help that they would be
    seeking for. After a long discussion we came to notice that the school had no roof.
    The principal said that the roof was blown away during a thunderstorm and that the
    region suffers a lot during Thunderstorm. There had been many incident regarding
    the thunderstorm in the region due to its hilly location. The school had received no
    training or drill regarding the Earthquake and seeks for such training. There had been
    water problem due to difficulties in Boring. The school had only 4 teachers and 85
    students.
