If you did not like the RiverLinks project how would you like this project which talks about building dams?
Taking care of the flood problem which washes away all hopes for the villagers/farmers every year, was the main reason that made me fall for it, like many would! I won't deserve any praises since it isn't my project or anything, just was not ready for the Guwal-gaali'. : ) Did not want to make mm-da mad either, as he also 'naakos kori disil prothomotei' when he brought it up yesterday.
