When the public join hands with the Government in implementing development schemes, they yield amazing results. The renovation of irrigation canals from the Kelavarappalli Dam in Krishnagiri district, Tamil Nadu, is a glaring example. The government has allotted Rs 2.75 crore for the desilting and repairing works of the Left and Right Canals that originate from the dam. <br />''<br />''The farmers who use the water joined together and contributed ten per cent more money from their own resources and extended the works further. They also offered physical labour by following social distancing. As a result, the works are set to be completed well before the target date of August end. <br />''<br />''Now farmers are happy that the reservoir, the canals and the ponds on the way would be prepared to supply more water covering a larger area. The district administration has praised the farmers for their work in coordination with the government.<br />
