ABOUT THE VILLAGE
Koladur village comes under Nesargi town in Belgaum. Thevillagehasatotalpopulationof 300
families.
Socialisation:
Mostofthewomenandteenagersofbothgenderdonotcome forward to take part in any social activities
they feel shy to express themselves. All the villagers are very warm and caring in nature. in
general are good at heart,very loving and caring.
Occupation:
Their main occupation is agriculture. Main crops(corn, wheat, sugarcane, cotton, sunflower,
green chilli). Some villagers have their own land whereas some do not own land and work as
agricultural labours in other fields and in nearby villages ,they also carry on agricultural allied
activities like cattle rearing and poultry etc.
Infrastructure: -
The village has common taps from which they get drinking water.
It has got no street lights, House infrastructure.
Education:-
The village has a elementary school which has classes up to 6th
standard. School timings on week
days is 10 am to 4 45 pm and on Saturday its 8 am to 11 40 am. For further education the
villagers have to go to the main town Nesargi which is 1 km away from the village. Moreover
the present condition of the school is not good either which is evident from the fact that the
school has got no enough classes due to which students of two classes are made to sit in one.
Because of this no proper attention is given to their individual needs. The children are not so
interested in attending classes and hence they are not even regular to school and classes. This is
mainly because the children are not so motivated by their parents as the parents themselves are
not aware of the need of education.
Card system, Mid-day meal scheme
Government provides mid-day meals to children of the school in the village. On the other hand
they also provide milk to children during the break before lunch time.

Health: -
Health is wealth. The rural people are blessed with pollution free environment and they enjoy
good air and water and noise free atmosphere. But the drawback is they fail to keep their
2. surroundings and their own self clean. open toilet facility makes it all the more worse. Above all
thesethere is no health centre in this village. They have to go to nesargi for any treatment.
Jana Jagaran-
Fr Tom Kurien and Fr Joe Chenakala have the NGO called ‘Jana Jagaran’. They too have been operating
there for over 20 years and looking after the development of the villages through SHGs. One of the unique
projects initiated by Jana Jagaran is the production of biogas for cooking from toilet waste which has helped
the people of this region Self help group
Bhuvaneshwari
It was started in the year 1995. A group of 20 members comprising of women was formed and at
present the same members are continuing their membership. It mainly promotes the collection of funds
as savings from women as well as lending money as loan to women in need at a certain rate of interest.
The members assemble once in a month and relevant transactions are carried out with the initiative of a
lady who is a member of Jana jagran foundation. The initial transaction was started with Rs 10. The total
amount once reached up to Rs 5 lakh, out of which Rs 1 lakh was deposited in the bank and the
remaining Rs 4 lakh was a turnover within the members. For every Rs 100, there is Rs 2 interest which is
charged for the loans lend to the women. The members maintain a separate pass book as in case of
bank pass book where the entries will be made. Though most of the women are illiterate, they are really
aware of the money being transacted either it may be savings or loan or interest. The main purpose here
is to encourage the women to save as well as to support them in case of financing housing facilities,
education for children, marriage, development, etc. At present there are six other such groups formed
of 20 members in the same village kolladur due to self interest arising out of women. Hence this has
really been working for the benefit of the women and society in general.
