12/22/07 13:10 - jkicha

In R.T. Nagar, near CBI road, 3-4 constructions happening in 2 streets. All the builders dump the construction materials like bricks, sand, stones on the streets.

They also dig up the streets to get connection and close them with just dirt. To whom, we can report this?

So, we dont need the Reva's?

Cooking Gas From Kitchen Waste

12/18/07 15:18 - GVK

done by Pune-based Appropriate Rural Technology Institute (ARTI) in developing a household biogas plant that feeds on our kitchen waste.
