Support to the Farmers, amidst COVID-19 pandemic
After declaration of the lockdown because of the COVID-19, the farmers were facing problem to sell their vegetables and it cause a heavy loss to the farmers. In the meantime, after discussion with the district administration, we have got a pass to collect and sell vegetables door to door so that the farmers can survive and at the same time people can get vegetables at the doorstep. From 16th April 2020 to 13th May, 2020 we had collected vegetables from very interior villages of Khowang area like Goroimari, Kawoimari, Senimari, Gojpuria, Khalihamari etc. and sell them in Moran town and nearby places in reasonable price.
