  • Yes you are right, it is a nice village. I am not surprised you found it nice in 1980, because I spent some days in it in 1965, and yet it was well developped, thanks to Mr Venkatswamy, who even brought there Mrs Gandhi, Prime Minister of India, in 1966. Incidentally, the Venkatswamy family donated the land where your school is located. Previously, in 1965, it was an orchard, and on the satellite picture you can still see traces of the checkered pattern of the trees, at the far left (NW)corner. This year, I went again there, 44 years later, and visited your school. You have all reasons of being proud of it. Regards from Paris.
