Solution
- Our Panchayat recently undertook the task of building a community hall. It was necessary because there was no such common place where people could gather at a time. It was difficult to hold a general meeting, organise a general function, etc.
- The money was collected as a contribution from the villagers and some part of it was also diverted from the Panchayat welfare fund.
- Yes, the work has been completed within the projected time and it is now in use.
