Name: Meera devi
State: Rajasthan
District: Alwar
Village: Roudpur
Our village faces a water problem; women struggle to get water on time, and children can’t attend school regularly. We complained to the village council, including Sachin, the head. We even blocked the Sheetal bus stand road, leading to a water tanker supply for a month. However, the problem has resurfaced.
We submitted a memorandum to the Panchayat Committee chairman in Govindgarh, but our concerns were ignored. In our village, Ronpur, I worked on a prohibition campaign. There was an illicit alcohol shop selling alcohol from a grocery store for a long time. I discussed this with women and filed an application at Baroda Meo police station, but no action was taken. Then, I approached the Lakshmangarh excise department, where authorities finally took action. The police came to the village and closed the illegal shop.
