This blog is about a small village in Maharashtra by the name of KOLE.

Strange fact about Kola / Kole problem

Sangola's problem is peculiar. Villages like Balloddi, Nazra, Wazra, Andhal, Chimke, Vatambar, Vasood, Akola and Kadlas are located in the Maan river basin but the water there is no good. It is not fit for consumption. Always dependent on tanker-water, they now believe it is time to move before summer really sets in. It was the same with the 400 'dhangar' families - sheep-rearing is what they do for a living - who emptied out of Kola, Kidimishri, Junooni, Tippehari. They left reluctantly, only after they realised there was no 'khurte gawat' (grass) left for the cattle. Walking 60 km south to Sangli is a better option than simply watching the cattle die.
