K.K.Varijar has suggested to go to one of such settlements in panchajate Vetetparamb. In half an hour we were on a place. In the heart of a small bosk from coconut palm trees stood two ten accurate small houses. In the settlement centre attracted attention the big round well - the usual centre of a rural life. We also have approached to it. We were there and then surrounded with ubiquitous children, began to approach and adults. One statnaja the young woman with the person of the Madonna in very poor, but purely washed sari has invited us to herself in the house, has offered on a traditional glass of water which in India welcome each visitor. In its apartment small kuhonka, a dining room, a bedroom. On kitchen the polished copper pots shine to shine. In spalenke in a mat modest belongings are turned. Cleanliness irreproachable. Our mistress had appeared Padmavati - the wife of the farm laborer, mother of two children.
- We live here already half a year, - she has told. - before with children huddled where it is necessary - always out of charity. Now, when at us own habitation, to us is very good that on anybody we do not depend, - the young woman has modestly finished the short story.
When we have left these benevolent people and have a little driven off, K.K.Varijar so has commented on the story of the woman: ' you see, what this big business - our program of building of habitation to poor men. Besides that homeless people have for the first time a roof over a head, and however for this reason, at them the psychology varies, the feeling of haplessness and downtroddenness disappears, the self-respect ' develops. And, having kept silent, continued: whether ' Yes only this program? And take health services in village. At us in staff 960 rural panchajatov. In each of them the government has opened primary clinics. In staff about 600 medical centres with hospitals '.
