We earn our livelihood by growing sugarcanes and lentils. As farmers
are not educated they have to face lot of obstacles. They are ignorant
about the government schemes. They are not much aware about the
market. Due to this they do not get the income they deserve.
As per the government record our district is 100% literate. People
here only know to give their signature. They are unable to read
and write anything else.
